| 1 | Heartburn, indigestion, acid reflux | Anxiety, shakiness, tingling in hands and feet, bone pain | I will never take this drug again. Side effects are horrible. | F | 65 | 6 days 150 | 10/19/2016 | 1 | Hiatal hernia/ Gerd | Shortness of breath!! Anxiety, lump in throat. Morning headache, increased indigestion. Gi upset. Tingling in finger tips. Muscle weakness, especially legs. Overall ill feeling. Stay away from this crap. | F | 53 | 2 weeks 75 mg | 10/12/2016 | 1 | Post nasal drip | Spinning sensation, like the room was spinning, bloody stools, pain in upper stomach, stomach upset, feel like I might be sick (diarrhea), feel like I have gas, but nothing will come out. | I originally went to an ent for sinus problems. My doctor said my sinuses were narrow so she referred me to an ent. The ent doctor said my CT scan was fine, except a deviated septum. I have been having a lot of post nasal drip due to what I thought was allergies and sinus problems. She didn't think my deviated septum was a problem and since they sinuses looked fine, she brushed off l my concerns and brought up acid reflux. I was skeptical because I had never had any problems with heartburn or any foods. She thought I could have had "silent reflux". So she prescribed me this terrible medicine. I was reluctant, but I have it a try. I even changed my diet. All the bad foods for reflux, I ate in moderation anyway, so I was confused. But I cut out coffee, soda, fatty foods, etc. I would then eat or drink say, a small glass of soda, or a piece of pizza, and would feel no different then before. No problems. The side effects started coming on within a few days, and it makes me feel sick. I'm not even sure I have any type of reflux, and it makes me so mad that the doctor just blew me off and sent me out with a prescription! I may be biased, since I don't even think I HAVE reflux, and it's just allergies….but this medicine has done nothing for me but make me feel sick, and I'm not even sure I need it, so I feel like I'm getting sick for nothing. | F | 22 | 10 days 150 | 9/29/2016 | 1 | Heart burn | I broke out in hives after taking Zantac. I have been taking Benadryl for 5 days now along with prescription steroids. The hives are large. They come and go from the bottom of my feet to my chest and arms. | I won't be taking this again | M | 36 | 1 days 150 | 9/18/2016 | 3 | taking with zyrtec to get rid of hives | Took the Zantac along with zyrtec to get ride of hives as theyou work better combined at stopping histamine then the zyrtec does alone. This was very effecting at stopping the hives when I couldn't get them to stop with just the zyrtec, however, the worst symptom I had from the Zantac was diarrhea. Every time I would take it, I would have diarrhea within the next few hours! Would stop it for a day or 2 and I could see that stools were returning to normal, but Zantac really help with hives and I needed to take it as I'm in the middle of finding out what is causing the allergic hives. | F | 26 | 2 weeks 150 MG | 9/9/2016 | 4 | Gerd | Anxiety heart palpitations sleepiness | But relieved acid reflux pain | F | 88 | 1 days 150 | 9/7/2016 | 2 | Acid reflux | Lightheaded, excess gass and bloating, watery eyes,anxiety trubble falling asleep, heart palpitations tightness in chest and just generally feeling unwell, weak and sick | It did help with the acid reflux thow, but I rather cope with the reflux than the side effects, will definitely stop using this product | M | 24 | 3 days 150 | 9/2/2016 | 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 | Sore stomach due to Sertaline | Tiredness , sore stomach, headaches | F | 60 | 2 months 300 | 7/26/2016 | 1 | Acid Reflux | Shortness of breath, pain in chest and right leg.

I personally do NOT recommend it. | After I was on Ranitidine for w days I started having issues. My ears hurt, they are so plugged I can hardly hear, I have mild sinus issues, but mainly in my ears. I am constantly tired and feeling like I could fall asleep no matter where I am or what I am doing. I have also had a horrible migraine headache that won't go away. My Dr wants me to go in today for this. These night pitch ringing in my ears is also another thing that is driving me crazy. My brain functions don't seem what it normally is, and all I want to do is curls in a ball and just sleep it all away, but causes me to not be able to sleep at night and makes me want to sleep in the day.

I would also get heart pain and lost 10lbs in less than 2 weeks. My acid reflux continue. I started reading people comments and notice that they are the same symptoms I have.
