RANTAC SYP 100ML

About

Rantac syrup contains Ranitidine, an H2-receptor antagonist that works by significantly reducing the amount of acid produced in the stomach. This mechanism helps to alleviate and prevent various acid-related conditions, including heartburn, acid indigestion, and symptoms associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). By lowering stomach acid levels, Rantac promotes the healing of peptic ulcers and esophageal erosions, which are often exacerbated by excessive acid. It provides effective and long-lasting relief from discomfort, allowing the digestive tract to recover. The syrup formulation is particularly beneficial for individuals who have difficulty swallowing tablets, such as children or the elderly, ensuring ease of administration and consistent dosing. Rantac is a widely used medication for managing hyperacidity and related gastrointestinal disorders, improving patient comfort and quality of life.
