Common Questions and Answers about Zantac while pregnant

zantac

Avatar f tn m allergic to acetmenaphin(tylenol) which is supposedly the only thing I can take while pregnant. My doctor refuses to write me prescriptions for anything else and tells me to deal with it and there's nothing else like aspirin that I can take. She's very rude. My sister had a baby about a year ago, she's allergic to tylenol as well and her doctor told her other medicines she can take that wouldn't be harmful to the child. She can't remember what they are tho.

Avatar f tn I want something with immediate relief and wondered if the anyone took the other ones like Zantac or whatever else is out there. Tums does NOT work for me. Any input as to what your doctor said was ok, please let me know. Also, I'm 29 weeks, in case that matters to anyone's advice. Thanks in advance for your input.

11116547 tn?1415690651 Does anyone know of any over the counter medicine that safe to take while pregnant and having acid reflux? Ive been using tums and im not gonna lie it did help out alot at first but it seems since my beebee has dropped my reflux has gotten worse. Believe me i was looking forward to her dropping to relieve some of the reflux but unfortunately it hasn't. Thanks.
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).
949222 tn?1266834907 I used zantac and it worked pretty well...I have a hiatal hernia so my indigestion during pregnancy was absolutely unreal and hurt so bad. Like m3lanie, I used to drink a glass of milk with a spoonful of (sweet) cream when it was bad, too. I couldn't take tums or any other of the calcium-based antacids because I have semi-chronic calcium kidney stones and they ARE chronic when I'm pregnant due to the different calcium absorption rates while you're pregnant...
Avatar f tn Gaviscon Double effect, safe during pregnancy
Avatar f tn My doc told me Zantac is safe for pregnant women. Iwas doing tums but they only worked but for so long and it says not to exceed 12 in a day. Zantac was a life saver for me.
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?
3055148 tn?1368211800 Has anyone ever taken Zantac? My doctor told me to take that everyday instead of taking tums b/c they are pointless, but I kinda don't wanna take medicine.
280369 tn?1316702041 I probably asked this before, but is taking zantac on a daily basis or a few times a week a bad thing in pregnancy? I'm just about 32 weeks and have had the worst acid reflux this pregnancy and have tried every natural thing out there. For a while, just drinking grapefruit juice got rid of it, but now it does nothing. Tums have even stopped working. I am not one to take medicines or pop a pill unless I absolutely have to, and that's pregnant or not pregnant.
Avatar f tn Talk to your doctor you can get prescribed something that's safe to take while pregnant. I too have bad acid reflux with a burning in my throat so bad that used to keep me up. I mentioned it to my doctor and he prescribed me 150 mg Zantac and I no longer have a problem.
Avatar f tn My dad has zantec but i didn't think i could take that while being pregnant!?! I'm definatly goin to take one now!!!
Avatar f tn I get it every night when I lay down.it Burns so bad where I feel like I'm gunna throw up. I'm pretty sure its acid reflex.
4250330 tn?1388621179 Pepto isn't safe while pregnant. I had bad reflux and heartburn with both pregnancies. I took tums until they stopped working, then switched to Zantac per my ob. Zantac worked better than anything.
Avatar f tn Hi ladies, what's a good way to relieve heartburn besides for tums, Zantac and meds. I stay away from meds while pregnant. I usually just fight threw it but it's every night and almost day now :/ never had this much with my first so unsure how to relieve it? Thanks! Btw I'm 30w3days alonge.
