Ranitidin 150

Is ranitidine still safe to take after the expiration/discard date? Mine is 10/10/12. ## Hello, Linda! How are you? Most medications, such as Ranitidine, don't get dangerous when expired, but they do begin to lose efficacy after that point. Thus, the older they are, the less they are going to work. Learn more Ranitidine details here. It would really be best to just dispose of the expired and purchase new. Are there any other questions or concerns? ## I was on omeprazole for about 2 and a half years, and on Rapeprazole for 10 years for acid reflux. My last endoscopy revealed fundic polyps so I stopped taking the omeprazole and my GP put me on Ranitidine 150mg x2 daily. Have been taking them for for 5 days now. It doesn't suppress the acid as well as the omeprazole do and on top o...

I had taken Rantac 150mg, 2hrs back for G.E.R.D. It expired in August 2016. Please help me. Is it dangerous? ## No, that is nothing to worry about, Vivek. It doesn't become dangerous, once expired, it just starts to lose efficacy, according to the FDA. If you have anymore that is expired, it would be best to dispose of them and obtain a fresh supply. Is there anything else I can help with? ## My acid reducer (ranitidine 150) expired on 09/2017. How long can it be kept & used or do I just need to get rid of it?

I just wanted to know if there were any recalls for ranitidine 150 mg (IP 253) for 2017? ## There was a recall for the syrup manufactured by Actavis, but that is all I have found for this year, so far, according to the FDA recall list. Have you experienced some problem with this medication? The FDA warns that this medication may carry the risk of causing side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, stomach pain, and flatulence. ## Has Kroger recalled its Kroger Heartburn Relief 150 mg Ranitidine with a National Drug Code of 30142-600-01? ## Has Avkare NCD (ndc 42291-724-60) Ranitidine 150mg tablets marked IP 150 been recalled?

I was prescribed Ranitidine 150 mg manufactured by Amneal. Is it gluten free? I've been having stomach pain since I started it. ## I have to break Amneal 300 mg tabs in half and my throat gets sore. I have been told by the pharmacist and the doctor this is fine to do. May I say how dare BCBS limit me to 90 days only per year of Protonix because it costs more; sure I could appeal it. Since I never had any real problems with Ranitidine before taking Ameal Ranitidine, and seeing it when it turns bad makes me wonder about the company? ## Hello, Reed! How are you?

Hi. My daughter has dental surgery tomorrow and her Dr now says she needs to take Pepcid ac or similar "acid blocker" the night before. This surgery was scheduled with no warning. Now with blizzard its dangerous to go out. We have ranitidine 150 mg exp Jan 2012, its now Feb 2014. Is it still effective? Should she take two (300 mg)? There's no way to get fresh OTC meds. We have TUMS that is still good. Thanks! ## I accidentally or say foolishly gave my 3 yr old daughter expired ranitidine syrup as 3 does of 4 ml each. She is having severe stomach pain n bloody mucusy stool from before and I think it worsened it. What to do? Is it severe?

I use ranitidine 150 mg on a daily basis. As of Thursday June 16 2011 my doctor prescribed sulfamethoxazole tmp ds tab.

However, the symptoms you described could be side effects of the Sulfamethoxazole with Trimethoprim, which is an antibiotic commonly prescribed in the U.S. under the brand name Bactrim. Additionally, they could be caused by the infection that is being treated with this medication. Have you consulted your doctor? Since the Ranitidine is used to reduce the amount of acid produced by the stomach, to treat or prevent conditions like heartburn and ulcers, it can affect the proper absorption of some ...

Ranitidine 150 mg tablet. I have always received a peach colored tablet w/imprint PAR 544. Concerned about white tablet is for Zantac? I take this w/Metoprolol. ## my husband gets white ones and sometimes peach ones ## Just to confirm, yes, the APO pill is also Ranitidine 150mgs, a generic for Zantac.
