Rantac 150 (Ranitidine) reduces stomach acid and is primarily used to treat acidity, heartburn, indigestion, and reflux. However, it does not directly relieve routine gas pain or bloating, which are typically caused by the accumulation of trapped gas. For mild gas, simple lifestyle steps like eating slowly, avoiding overeating, and walking after meals may help. If the problem occurs frequently or becomes severe, it is best to consult a doctor to determine the exact cause and receive the appropriate treatment.

No, pain while urinating is not a known side effect of Rantac Tablet. Rantac (which contains ranitidine) is used to reduce stomach acid and treat acidity or ulcers. If you are feeling pain while passing urine, it may be due to a urinary tract infection (UTI), irritation, or another medical condition, not because of Rantac. You should consult a doctor for proper evaluation and treatment.

A sore throat for 20 days needs proper evaluation because Rantac only helps if the cause is acidity. You should visit an ENT doctor to check for infection, allergy, or reflux and get the right treatment. Until then, drink warm fluids, do salt-water gargles, avoid spicy foods, and try steam inhalation to ease the discomfort.

Stomach aches after eating spicy food can happen because ingredients such as chilli, pepper, strong masalas, and other hot spices can irritate the stomach lining and increase acid. This irritation may persist as the food moves through your digestive system, leading to cramps, bloating, or loose stools, especially if you have acid reflux, gastritis, or a sensitive stomach. To prevent this, try eating smaller portions of spicy food, avoid having it on an empty stomach, choose milder spice levels, drink enough water, and use simple antacids if advised by a healthcare professional. You should consult a doctor if the pain keeps returning or becomes stronger.

For throat pain and chest acidity, you can take paracetamol to relieve pain and an antacid to reduce acidity, but do not take any medicine without consulting your doctor. If symptoms persist or worsen, consult your doctor for proper treatment.

If allopathy is not giving enough relief, you can manage acidity and dysentery with simple home measures. Eat light, non-spicy foods, avoid oily meals, and take small, frequent meals to reduce acidity. Warm water, curd, buttermilk, and bananas can soothe your stomach. For dysentery, stay hydrated with ORS or rice water and stick to soft foods like khichdi or curd rice until stools improve. Avoid outside food, milk, and raw salads for a few days. If symptoms last more than 2 to 3 days or worsen, it is best to get checked.
