Description
Zantac tablets contain the active ingredient ranitidine, which is a type of medicine called an H2 receptor antagonist.
Zantac (Ranitidine) acts in the stomach to decrease the production of stomach acid. Ranitidine works by blocking histamine H2 receptors that are found on the cells in the stomach lining. A natural body chemical called histamine normally binds to these receptors, causing the cells to produce stomach acid. By blocking the H2 receptors, Ranitidine prevents histamine from binding to them. This stops the cells from producing stomach acid.
