Introduction About RANITIN INJECTION
RANITIN INJECTION contains Ranitidine which belongs to the group of medicines called H2 receptor antagonists. It is used in the management of intestinal, benign and post-operative ulcers. Peptic or intestinal ulcers are open sores that develop on the inside lining of your stomach and the upper part of your small intestine, causing stomach pain.
RANITIN INJECTION is also used to manage reflux oesophagitis (inflammation of lower food pipe due to backflow of acidic stomach contents) and Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome (small tumour in the first part of your intestine due to excessive gastrin secretion).
Avoid smoking during the management with RANITIN INJECTION, as it may delay healing or worsen the ulcers. Before receiving RANITIN INJECTION, inform your doctor if you have stomach cancer, kidney, lung, heart or immunity problems, porphyria (rare blood disorder) or diabetes.
RANITIN INJECTION is not recommended for use in pregnant or breastfeeding women unless your doctor finds it essential. RANITIN INJECTION is only given to children when they are unable to take the medicine by mouth. Your doctor will determine a proper dose depending on your child’s age, body weight and disease condition. Contact your doctor if you experience any side effects or if any of the symptoms worsen.
