Doctor didn't know what was wrong with me so prescribed me this. Within half an hour my nausea worsened and a headache came on. After my second dose I became very emotional and nauseated. I have to continue for another month to see if my reflux stops, but the side effects are causing a lot of pain. | F | 16 | 1 days 150 X2D | 12/11/2015 | 1 | Acid | Stomach pain got worse and chest and hard to breath | Didn't help my problum and still stuck taking it | F | 16 | 3 months | 1/18/2016 | 3 | Acid reflux | Experienced dizziness, dry eyes, tingling sensations in hands, higher anxiety, loss of apetite | I had no idea this medication had so many side effects. After 6 days on it, I began to feel very strange and not like myself.I got online tonight to research the medication and after reading all of the reviews, I now know it is because of the Zantac. I have stopped taking it and will look at other options. I couldn't understand why I was so anxious and not like myself. So glad I'm not crazy! | F | 17 | 7 days 300 MG 1X day | 1/30/2012 | 2 | Severe stomach pain after eating | Worse stomach pain, constipation, fatigue, nausea, confusion, feeling weak, insomnia and missed period | I don't know whether they have messed up my menstrual cycle or what, but I had a fixed pattern and after taking them for 1 day- my period did not start when it was supposed to- I assumed it was just late by a day or two but a week and a half gone by and I'm convinced they've caused me to miss my period.. Don't know about anyone else? Think I might have to take this point to my doctor.. | F | 17 | 1 weeks 150 mg | 12/2/2015 | 1 | Heartburn | HAIR LOSS, sore throat, yellow urine and headaches | I've lost so much of my hair, it's continuing to fall out now and I'm getting to the point where I don't know if I'm going to end up needing a wig or not, I don't recommend these to anyone!! | F | 17 | 3 weeks 150mg | 8/3/2016 | 1 | Acid reflux | Lightheadedness,trouble sleeping at night,muscle twitches,anxiety,irregular heartbeat,shortness of breath,and gas | It helped acid but terrible side effects felt lightheaded and body twitches at night and shortness of breath throught the day. Stopped taking it for a bit felt completely normally other then the acid reflux. | M | 18 | 2 weeks 150 | 1/19/2017 | 3 | Gastritis | None | Didn't seem to do much, good or bad. I took it as prescribed and still found that I couldn't eat most "solid" foods without nausea, discomfort, or pain. I'm not sure that this drug helped me, as it's possible I might have just healed on my own. It's possible that it helped, though, and my gastritis did go away. It just took a long time. | F | 19 | 20 days 3X day | 7/21/2013 | 4 | M | 20 | 3 months | 4/4/2001 | 1 | Heartburn/ acid reflux | Chest plupitations, head aches, confusion, bloating, insomnia, nausea loose stools. | I would NOT recommend this drug to anyone. I have had heart burn/ acid reflux for the past 3 years almost everyday I keep going back to the doctors but they keep sending me off with new antiacids. I have been on this for 2 wks and it has done nothing if anything it has made me feel like I am in a mother world. All I wanted was some relief from this but it has just caused other problems. Iwl NOT be taking this again!!! | F | 20 | 2 weeks 150 MG | 4/24/2015 | 1 | heartburn | Frequent diarrhea, constipation, TERRIBLE ANXIETY, pain in upper left side, shortness of breath, and I'm hot basically all of the time. INSOMNIA. | I struggled with anxiety while in middle school which would lead to me having diarrhea, fever and shortness of breath. I thought I had grown out of it and then started getting it really badly again when I started college about a month after starting zantac. I thought I was just getting anxiety again because of being in a new environment. It all made sense. But recently, it started getting worse. Recently, I started suffering from insomnia as well. So I sat here and started thinking about how long I had been having these issues, and it all started when I started taking zantac. I didn't even realize it was the problem because of thinking it was just normal anxiety like I had years before. So I googled the side effects and sure enough every problem that I was having in life was on the list. I decided to not take it today and do more research and after looking at other people's stories I do not think I will be taking it again. I think I would rather suffer with heartburn than have this continue to ruin my life. Can't even leave the house without fear of getting sick. Terrible drug. | F | 20 | 8 months 150mg 1X day | 1/18/2015 |
