DESCRIPTION
RANIDIN (Ranitidine) is a potent histamine (H2) receptor antagonist. RANIDIN (Ranitidine) lowers the excess gastric acid secretion by blocking the histamine (H2) receptor and thus accelerates ulcer healing process. RANIDIN (Ranitidine) antagonizes the H2 receptor and inhibits the action of histamine on acid secretion.
