Rantac 150 in pregnanacy
Hi mam/sir
I am 23 week pregnant now. And from the 2nd month of my pregnancy i am suffering from GERD.
Fed up with using pan40, Gaviscon and ganaton tablets as there is no result.
I am facing heart burning sensation after food and am taking food with out oil and less salt only. Stopped deep fries and totally not taking non-veg and due to which lost 5 kgs.
Past 3 weeks am using rantac 150 tablets morning and night before food , now i can able to eat all with out any issues
But i read somewhere, rantac 150 cannot be taken in preganancy for more than 2 weeks .
Kindly suggest wheather i can continue the tablets or not
If i have to stop , again how i can control GERD?

U can take it safely. But try not to become dependent on it. Continue bland diet, avoid lying down after eating - walk for 15 minutes
