Common Questions and Answers about Ranitidine liver

zantac

Avatar m tn I also have mental health issues. Its not helping reading zantac can cause all of these cancers colon, kidney, bladder, lung, liver etc etc etc.... So anyone who took this medication gets tested for all these cancers how? This is ridiculous!
Avatar f tn ve been paranoid ever since I learned that Ranitidine had been recalled due to a link to cancer. Is a 2 month dose of Ranitidine something to worry about?
Avatar f tn Now i am doubtful that i am pregnant as i removed my copper T recently.

851041 tn?1240695424 Also if you consume alcohol,munch some light snacks along with it and as far as possible try abstaining from alcohol or taking very less amounts of it.You can also take some OTC antacid like Mylanta, zantac(ranitidine)or prilosec(omeprazole).These will help.Also keep your fluid electrolyte balance optimum by drinking lots of fluids. If the symptoms persist then pls get it evaluated from a physician and get gall bladder/liver disease ruled out. Hope it helps.
Avatar m tn Our local doctors said it just stomach problem and they gave B Complex,Liver Extract With Vitamin B12 Injection and Betnesol injection for two days.Today it was given an anti biotic and ranitidine as it was thought to have gastric problem. Please help me soon, he is very sick..
Avatar n tn A few years ago my doctor put me on 75 mg Ranitidine to take twice a day before meals. A couple years ago he also put me on 20 mg Omeprazole to take once a day for 14 days, after which he said I could start taking the Ranitidine again if i still had the heartburn.
520191 tn?1355635402 Over a year ago i was given ranitidine for the treatment of GERD. I took my first dose and i started to feel nausea so i went to bed, during the night i started vomiting and not like any vomit i had ever experienced before. i thought nothing of it, until my heart began to race through out the night. the next morning i thought i might be allergic to one of my medication as i was prescribed 2 medication all at once.
Avatar f tn He did a ultrasound showing my liver elavated,as I told him the pain was on my right side then to my right temple at same time.As well as u can hear a heartbeat on my left rib area.And going to the restroom like every five minutes,and threw up one time.He gave me vicoden,promethazine,and ranitidine,then told me to go to my primary.As I did today 2-22-10. She said that all is ok,not even as much as a blood test.She is getting me to go see a GI Dr.for a colonostyme,and I can tell him all.
Avatar f tn Some studies have linked EBV with Hashimoto's, but there's nothing conclusive. Some doctors have felt that Fibromyalgia is, basically, un or under-treated hypothyroidism, since Fibro and hypothyroidism share many symptoms and many/most of the symptoms go away if the patient is treated adequately with thyroid hormones.
Avatar n tn Just an idea, see if you can find a homeopathic product at the health food store. Advil is kinda hard on your liver. Have a nice cuppa tea and some dry toast. Tea always make me feel better.
15695260 tn?1549593113 Choices for a generic over the counter antacid just got smaller as the drug maker of generic ranitidine under the brand name of Zantac has pulled distribution of the medication world wide. Last week the FDA stated they found cancer causing chemicals in some samples taken from batches of generic rantitidine or Zantac. https://www.fda.
2006603 tn?1331329327 Anyone use ranitidine while pregnant? I am 33w4d and yesterday my doc prescribed me 150mg tablets to take twice a day for heartburn. Anyone use ranitidine while pregnant? I just want to make sure its safe.
Avatar m tn In order to treat Acid Reflux/GERD I have been taking Ranitidine/Zantac per doctors advice. I started developing various side effects several months ago. To verify the side effects were caused by the ranitidine I would stop for a few weeks and use TUMS instead. I repeated this cycle several times. The symptoms would go away each time I was off the ranitidine for a week or so.
619150 tn?1247048274 Also lately I have stomach discomfort, like I can feel the waste passing inside my lower stomach. I have a acid reflux problem and take Ranitidine for heartburn, also have swelling at anus witch I think is hemorrhoids.
Avatar f tn Dx with GERD/Gastritis in 1988. I take ranitidine on and off. I watch what I eat to avoid reflux. Dx with IBS in 1995. Recently I had an endoscopy and colonoscopy. Dx - diverticulosis and stomach showed chronic gastritis. Developed difficulty swallowing food (not the lump in throat you get with GERD) I had right side (under ribs) pain since july 2010. ER did an ultrasound. Huge gallstone in gallbladder. Had gallbladder removed. We are now it Nov 2010 - Right pain is still there.
Avatar f tn Zantac or the generic ranitidine, my Dr gave me the ok on Monday because everything I eat gives me bad heartburn
Avatar f tn Please help. I’m on ranitidine 300 2x’s day. This has been months daily worse. Thought I had kidney stone. Ck’d no Stones. Pain under rib. Pain is from under left rib to kidney. I am gassed up, with loose stool. I have slimy discharge anally. I’m wondering if it’s the ranitidine causing. Urologist has no clue. Reg Dr wants me to have colonoscopy. What is is, what do I do. I might go to area Hosp. ER tomorrow. Tied of constant pain. Father had cancers. My PSA was high recently. Please help.
Avatar m tn ve never been officially diagnosed, just something my GP thought might be bothering me and prescribed me ranitidine... long story short, the ranitidine worked fine (150 mg/2x a day) and I was symptom free within 24 hours. Flash forward to 5 weeks ago, I thought I was developing a bit of a chest cold with some chest tightness. Figured the cough would come along later... funny thing, it never came.
Avatar f tn My consultant has taken me off omeprazole and replaced it with ranitidine due to the fact that my magnesium is low, and is making my calcium low too. Has anyone else had experience of this change, and if so, how has your body reacted to it.
Avatar f tn Besides I take the medications all the time, have lost 15kg, in 4 months, I eat as directed by my doctor, I still have the symptoms like, nausea, bloated stomach, and occasionally when my stomach is so bloated I have high heart rate and difficulty in breathing, that cause me a lot of panic and I have finished maybe 9-10 times to ER, where they diagnose me with digestive problems and anxiety like panic attack.
Avatar m tn After a lunch based on grinded pig and egg-pasta, I accused a strong disease of my head, my stomach, convulsions and great pain on the lateral external side of the liver, so a friend suggested me to take some pills of marian thistle (20mg/e of Silimarin).
531005 tn?1286515532 The doctors prescribed me some Ranitidine 300MG Tablets on the suspicion I may have either an ulcer or GERD. Does this medicine have the ability to cure either GERD or an Ulcer? If so, in about how much time?
312330 tn?1245176752 I wonder if you might have some insight into a liver issue that I have been experiencing. I'm 26 years old now. In April 2006 I contracted Hepatitis A, had about 2 weeks where I was really sick then gradually got better and regained my stamina. My LFTs were very slow to return to normal. At the end of that summer I started getting repeated sinus infections, then started intermittantly wheezing. I moved across the country to go to graduate school in August 2006.
Avatar f tn I have had abdominal ultrasound which included, kidneys, liver, pancreas, gallbladder, spleen, bile duct, and aorta. Also had abdoman ultrasound done and a vaginal ultrasound done. All was normal. They ran alot of bloodwork and said it was all normal. They also checked for h-pylori and it was normal. I have been having weird pains in upper right side under breast and it go around directly on my side, and in lower back. Weird.
