General info:
Ranitidine is a histamine H2-receptor antagonist that inhibits stomach acid production. It is commonly used in treatment of peptic ulcer disease (PUD) and gastroesogeal reflux disease (GERD). Ranitidine is also used alongside fexofenadine and other antihistamines for the treatment of skin conditions such as hives.
Clinical uses:
Certain preparations of ranitidine are available over the counter (OTC) in various countries. In the United States, 75 mg and 150 mg tablets are available OTC. Outside of the United States, ranitidine is combined with bismuth (which acts as a mild antibiotic) as a citrate salt, to treat Helicobacter pylori infections. This combination is usually given with clarithromycin, an antibiotic.
