Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (\u00a0NSAIDs\u00a0), for pain and\u00a0inflammation<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\nAntacids and sucralfate may impair the uptake of ranitidine and therefore ranitidine should be taken approximately 2 hours before taking these drugs.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking any medicine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ranitidine is excreted in breast milk, which leads to an increased risk of effects on the baby. Breast-feeding should be avoided during treatment with Rani-Q.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Driving and using machines<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Side effects\u00a0such as headache, dizziness, and fatigue are common.\u00a0Under such circumstances, the ability to react and the judge may be reduced, so that the ability to drive vehicles and use machines is impaired.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You are responsible for assessing whether you are fit to drive a motor vehicle or perform work that requires sharpened attention.\u00a0One of the factors that can affect your ability in these respects is the use of drugs due to their effects and\/or\u00a0side effects.\u00a0Descriptions of these effects and\u00a0side effects\u00a0can be found in other sections.\u00a0Read all the information in this leaflet for guidance.\u00a0If you are not sure, talk to your doctor or pharmacist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
