Ranx: An effective remedy for the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases

Ranx (international name: Ranitidine) is a pharmaceutical drug belonging to the group of N2-histamine receptor blockers and related agents. It is widely used to treat various gastrointestinal diseases and has proven effectiveness.

Ranx is manufactured in India by Uniquem Laboratories. The drug is available in the form of tablets containing 150 mg or 300 mg of the active substance - ranitidine.

The main indication for the use of Ranx is peptic ulcer of the stomach and duodenum. It is also effective in the treatment of NSAID gastropathy, postoperative ulcers, reflux esophagitis, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, chronic dyspepsia with epigastric and chest pain. Ranx may also be prescribed to prevent stress ulcers, prevent recurrent bleeding, and Mendelssohn's syndrome.

It should be noted that Ranx has some contraindications. It is not recommended for hypersensitivity to ranitidine, as well as for cirrhosis of the liver with a history of portosystemic encephalopathy, impaired liver and kidney function, pregnancy, lactation, and in children under 14 years of age.

Some side effects may occur when using Ranx, including headache, dizziness, drowsiness, anxiety, agitation, depression, hallucinations, and involuntary movements. Other possible side effects include arrhythmias, gastrointestinal disorders, pancreatitis, hepatitis, hematopoietic disorders, endocrine disorders and allergic reactions.

It is important to consider the interaction of Ranx with other drugs. Antacids and sucralfate may decrease the absorption of Ranx, and the drug itself may alter the absorption and excretion of other drugs.

In case of overdose with Ranx, induction of vomiting or gastric lavage is recommended. For seizures, diazepam can be used intravenously, and for bradycardia, atropine can be used. Ventricular arrhythmias may require the use of lidocaine.

Before starting treatment with Ranx, you should pay attention to special instructions. The drug should be used under medical supervision in patients with gastric or duodenal ulcers, especially in the presence of bleeding or perforation. You should also be careful when prescribing Ranx to patients with liver or kidney failure.

Ranx is an effective treatment for various gastrointestinal diseases, but its use should be under medical supervision. It is important to follow dosage recommendations and not exceed the recommended course of treatment. If you have questions or concerns about using Ranx, ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.



Ranx is a drug from the group of blockers of H2-histamine and related receptors. Ranitidines are one of the most popular drugs in this group. Only a schoolboy who studied pharmacology when the Soviet Union was still in existence had never heard of ranitidine. Although it should be noted that the popularity of ranitidine has decreased somewhat. And this is due to several reasons, which we will discuss below..

There are currently hundreds of new and innovative, highly effective proton pump blockers in the world, of which we only have half a dozen. Therefore, modern doctors prefer to prescribe them in cases where they are really needed. Ranitidia is often prescribed in cases of acute Barrett's esophagus, since treating it with long-ago ranitidines is the “gold standard” of medicine in emergency cases. Here is one of the many side effects of ranitidine therapy: a decrease in the level of folate in the blood in men with long-term use of drugs against the background of a deterioration in the sense of smell. Contraindications to taking ranitidines have been expanded. In case of renal failure, this drug is prohibited. Sometimes doctors with the word “sometimes” prescribe it to young patients with impaired liver function, whose age allows them to limit themselves to taking the drug. Ranitidine also has problems with side effects, from increased alertness among doctors and reluctance to prescribe the drug to eye problems. Or simply put, up to one more point out of the competition for disability.
