About Ranitidin Injection

Ranitidin Injection belongs to a group of medicines called gastrointestinal agents. It is used to treat and prevent stomach ulcers, indigestion, heartburn, acid reflux, gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD), and indigestion. It works by decreasing the amount of acid in the stomach.

Ranitidin Injection contains Ranitidine, a histamine-2 (H2) receptor blocker that helps reduce stomach acid by blocking the actions of the H2 receptor. The H2 receptor lies in the parietal cells of the stomach wall, and it is responsible for gastric acid secretion. Excessive gastric acid secretion damages the tissues in the food pipe, stomach, and duodenum.

Ranitidin Injection is administered by a healthcare professional; do not self-administer. Ranitidin Injection shows some common side effects like headache, diarrhoea, stomach ache or abdominal pain, constipation, and feeling sick. These side effects are temporary and may get resolved after some time. However, if these side effects persist, contact your doctor.

Before receiving the Ranitidin Injection, notify your doctor if you are allergic to any medications or foods. If you are pregnant or suspect you may be pregnant, or if you are a nursing mother, please notify your doctor. Also, before receiving the Ranitidin Injection, inform your doctor if you have or have had kidney, liver, heart, lung, poor immune system, diabetes, stomach cancer, or porphyria (hereditary disease).

Uses of Ranitidin Injection

Ranitidin Injection is used in the treatment of Peptic Ulcer, GERD, and Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome. The detailed uses of Ranitidin Injection are as follows:<br/>• Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD): Ranitidin Injection reduces acid reflux and heartburn by decreasing stomach acid production, providing relief from symptoms like chest pain and difficulty swallowing.<br/>• Peptic Ulcer Disease: Ranitidin Injection treats stomach and duodenal ulcers by reducing acid production, allowing ulcers to heal, and preventing further damage.<br/>• Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome: Ranitidin Injection manages excessive acid production, reducing symptoms like diarrhea, abdominal pain, and heartburn associated with this rare condition.<br/>

Directions for Use

• Follow your doctor's instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication to ensure safe and effective use.• Ranitidin Injection will be administered by the doctor or healthcare professional.• Do not self-administer.

Medicinal Benefits

Ranitidin Injection helps in reducing the excess amount of stomach acid. In turn, it prevents the formation of an ulcer in the stomach (peptic ulcer) and effectively treats or alleviates the various medical illness associated with this, including peptic ulcer, indigestion, dyspepsia, and heartburn. Besides this, it also stops acid from coming up from the stomach while under anaesthetic during an operation.

How Ranitidin Injection Works

Ranitidin Injection contains Ranitidine, a histamine-2 (H2) receptor blocker that helps reduce stomach acid by blocking the actions of the H2 receptor. The H2 receptor lies in the parietal cells of the stomach wall, and it is responsible for gastric acid secretion. Excessive gastric acid secretion damages the tissues in the food pipe, stomach, and duodenum.

Storage

• Store in a cool and dry place away from sunlight.• Keep out of sight and reach of children.• Non cold chain - To be stored in cool places at 10ºC to 25ºC or below 30ºC.

What if I have taken an overdose of Ranitidin Injection

Ranitidin Injection is administered by a health care professional in a hospital setting. Hence, the chances of overdose are less. Symptoms of overdose may include difficulty walking, severe dizziness/fainting. Your doctor may take immediate necessary measures if an overdose is suspected.

Drug Warnings

Inform your doctor about allergic or hypersensitive reactions to medications or food before receiving the Ranitidin Injection. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or suspect you may be pregnant or if you are a nursing mother. Also, inform your doctor before receiving the Ranitidin Injection if you have or have had a history of kidney, liver, heart, lung, poor immune system, diabetes, stomach cancer, or porphyria (hereditary disease). Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and all the medicines you take before taking Ranitidin Injection to rule out any side effects.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Avoid acid or heartburn-triggering foods or drinks like onions, peppermint, chocolate, caffeinated beverages, citrus fruits or juices, tomatoes and high-fat and spicy foods.
  • Before going to sleep, raise your bedhead, so your head and chest are higher than your feet. Do not use piles of pillows; one raised block is fine. This will not allow the stomach acid to backflow through your food pipe.
  • Avoid taking alcohol and smoking cigarettes. Alcohol can raise the production of stomach acid leading to heartburn and acid reflux. On the other hand, nicotine smoking damages the valve (sphincter), preventing stomach acid backflow into the food pipe.
  • Include high fibre-containing foods, berries, cherries, leafy green veggies (kale, spinach) and black peppers in your meal.
  • Fermented dairy products like miso, sauerkraut, and kimchi contain probiotics which help prevent excess stomach acid production. Cranberry juice can be beneficial for peptic ulcers and H Pyroli infections.
  • Avoid regular sitting continuously, as it can increase stomach acid production. Take a break of 5 minutes in 1 hour by brisk walking or stretching.
