Ranitidine 75mg syrup?

See the DrugPatentWatch profile for Ranitidine

Ranitidine syrup formulations used to exist in some places, but ranitidine products have been recalled or withdrawn in many markets because of NDMA impurity concerns. So “Ranitidine 75 mg syrup” isn’t a standard, widely available product in many countries today. If you have a bottle on hand, please don’t use it until you can confirm it’s approved in your area and not recalled.

If you’re looking for dosing or usage guidance, I’ll need a bit more detail:
- Which country you’re in
- The exact concentration on the bottle (for example, mg per mL)
- The patient’s age/weight and the reason for use

For general reference (not a substitute for medical advice):
- In adults, ranitidine dosing for GERD/ulcers has typically been around 150 mg twice daily or 300 mg at bedtime; maintenance often 150 mg at night.
- Pediatric dosing is weight-based and should be prescribed by a clinician.

Safer alternatives (if ranitidine isn’t available or is of concern) include famotidine or a proton pump inhibitor like omeprazole or pantoprazole, but these should be chosen and dosed by a clinician.

If you’d like, share the bottle details (mg/mL and total volume) and the patient’s age/weight, and I can help estimate a dose range or help you think through next steps.
