Common Questions and Answers about Zantac and motrin

zantac

Avatar n tn Sounds like either gas pains or an inflammation of the cartledge that connects your ribs to your sternum. Have you tried Prilosec, Zantac and watching your diet? Also, have you tried an anti-inflammatory such as Motrin? Hope this helps.
Avatar f tn I take 40 mg of prilosec a day and it works amazing
7349088 tn?1390657733 Has anyone taken zantac during pregnancy for heartburn? I'm 22+5 and have heartburn almost every other day. Sometimes it's so bad that I just want to sleep so i don't feel it.
3055148 tn?1368211800 I ran out of the 75 mg of zantac but I have equate 150 mg its the same thing as zantac but just the.generic brand. Is it ok to take that?
1088529 tn?1256844030 I've just started taking zantac, and I don't know if I'll have any side effects, or if my regular symptoms (stomach pain, upset stomach) will become apparent or come back. My question is this; if I get nauseous, stomach pain, upset stomach etc. as a side effect or other, can I take tums to calm my stomach down? Or will it just make things worse? I can't talk to my doctor because (a) don't have an appointment and (b) am too young to drive there or get an appointment myself.
484160 tn?1343397921 After month upon month of frustration, the wife goes and buys hubby some extra strength Zantac and within three hours he was wanting a cheeseburger. When the doctors came in that afternoon I asked them to give it a try. After a bit of condescending attitude on the doctor's part, he said, well, it can't hurt her so if that's what you want we will give it a try. It has now been a week since she was released from the hospital and so far, so good.
Avatar n tn s, I have been placed on Atenolol which has been increased to 50 mg QAM and 25 QHS, I have been placed on zantac 150 mg BID and nexium 40 mg BID (have been on Nexium for about 10 days). PVC's are almost totally gone but the chest pressure is there daily from approx. 11:00 a.m. until 9:00 p.m. The only relief that I get from the chest pressure is to lie on my stomach (weird right). When my doc put me on nexium I felt great for about 4 days, the pressure came back and is still with me today.
Avatar m tn Can you please tell me if you can take Nexium 40mg. and Zantac 75mg. together or on the same day. My GI doctor has me on Nexium 40mg. and my PCP wants me to take Zantac 75mg. at night before I go to bed. Is it safe, and can I take it with Xanax 1mg. I have GERDS and Barrett's Esophagus. And they both think it mjght be causing these little pinpoint pimples in my mouth, tongue, and throat.
Avatar f tn t zantac but it is the same ingredient you drop it in a half cup water and it foams up and you quickly drink it. It is OTC. If zantac is safe this should be too. Thanks so much. Also i read that taking any antacid like tums and rolaids can have a reaction with the prozac. Is this true i was too scared to try Tums.
Avatar f tn Go pick up zantac 150 or 75 mg. If 75 mg take 1 pill twice daily and then take tums as needed. Zantac should prevent the heartburn but if it doesnt work on occasion take tums (i normally take 4 extra strength tums or 2 ultra strength at a time) I was prescribed zantac 75 mg twice a day with my first baby and told to take tums if for some reason zantac doesnt help so its perfectly safe!
Avatar n tn I have also felt dizzy and light headed and nausous...but have not vomitted. I have also felt extremely tired and been sleeping for the majority of the last two days. I was thinking originally it could have been excess acid in my stomach so took some antacid tablets but those haven't seemed to work. I haven't changed my diet so don't think it's food related.
Avatar n tn Hi im not sure about motrin but can tell you that for a while i was taking tylonolpms to sleep but they caused heart arythmias and a friend here told me to stop taking them as i dident know they were the cause and from the time i stoped useing them the heart arythmias stoped so im not saying the moltrin is the cause but yes that could be the cause but you should see your cardiologist to rule out another cause.
Avatar f tn The new gastro took me through Pepcid (made me severly hypoglycemic); Prilosec (made me dizzy and caused migraines); and finally Zantac. Every scope showed the same thing -- hiatal hernia and small ulcer in Dueduonum. It was a mystery. But, once I quit eating milk protein, I threw the meds away.
Avatar m tn Zantac Ranitidine (150mg), antacid zellox-II, Zecuf, antibiotic (cephalexin), paracetamol, and cough syrup. This is when problem occurred. I started to experience soft light yellow stool (very little as i didn't eat much), diarrhea (>3 times, little too) , indigestion, nausea, and bloat. I started to get worried and didn't take the medicine for the time being. Please advise me what to do now. Thanks in advance.
593603 tn?1229378162 My RE and my OB both said I could take Zantac 150 - - didn't want me to take Pepto Bismol (b/c it has aspirin in it) or Prilosec OTC (it's a category C).
Avatar m tn By taking a medication off prescription and making it OTC the NHS saves money and the pharmaceutical company make more money because presumably more people will by it when they don't need a prescription. The reason you think Rannitidine is less effective is because the placebo effect has been removed.In fact both drugs are equally effective. Otherwise the generic version would not have been licenced.
Avatar f tn I thought I was done with this feeling nauseous stuff its so uncomfortable now and I had a severe sharpness in my back all over it hurt so bad but after a hour it went away has anyone else experienced this
4371309 tn?1357956329 for heartburn you can try drinking milk, or medication wise tums and zantac 75mg or 150 up to twice a day is ok to take during pregnancy, personally zantac is what has worked best for me
906115 tn?1344200509 She just kept getting worse and finally over a weekend we switched her to Nutramigen and kept with the zantac and she only has the projectile vomiting episodes every other day or so. I didn't ask the ped for meds, I just told him she was getting worse as time moved on and he gave her zantac and said to thicken her feedings.
Avatar f tn I am the same way. I take Zantac twice a day and I still have problems with it. I have to sleep sitting up or I gag in my sleep. I can totally deal with the other pains but throwing up stomach acid is the worst!
Avatar f tn I have been taking 800mg of motrin about every other day. to help ease the pain. My doctor is not aware of me taking the motrin. And now Im starting to worry, I have been taking it for about 2wks. now. And I know i should not have takin it. And Im trying so hard not too. But how much damage can already be done? I was at the hospital today and the babys heart beat was perfect they said, and the baby is extreamly active all the time!
1712422 tn?1443337501 yes i take motrin and I breastfeed. and that's not true..
Avatar f tn s not good to take Motrin/Advil. The dr never mentioned what I can and cannot take. Does anyone have any thoughs on this?
Avatar f tn No motrin is not safe you cant take any ibeprophen or asprin only tylenol is safe
