What is Zantac Syrup (Ranitidine)?

Zantac Syrup (also know by the generic name Ranitidine) is a medication that belongs to a group of drugs called histamine-2 blockers. It is most commonly used to treat and prevent ulcers in the stomach and small intestine and used to decrease the symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease and other conditions where excess stomach acid is produced. Because of its use in these instances, it is often referred to as an antacid.

Sometimes Zantac Syrup (Ranitidine) is also used in combination with other medicines to combat allergies. This is due to the histamine-blocking ability it has. Symptoms of allergies result from the release of histamine from mast cells in the body. When the release of histamine is blocked, symptoms of allergies subside. Histamine-2 blockers such as Zantac Syrup (Ranitidine) do not typically have a potent effect on quelling allergy symptoms but when combined with other medicines, they can help the patient feel better.
