Ranitidine HCl
Indication
YSP Vesyca is used for treating certain conditions that cause your body to make too much stomach acid (eg, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome). It is also used to treat ulcers of the small intestine that have not responded to other treatment. It may be used as a short-term alternative to oral ranitidine, in patients who are not able to take medicine by mouth. YSP Vesyca is an H2-receptor blocker. It works by blocking the action of histamine in the stomach. This reduces the amount of acid the stomach makes. Reducing stomach acid helps to reduce heartburn, heal irritation of the esophagus, and heal ulcers of the stomach or intestines.
Instruction
Use YSP Vesyca as directed by your doctor.
Ask your health care provider any questions you may have about how to use YSP Vesyca.
Drug interaction
Antacids may decrease the absorption of YSP Vesyca, so their intake should be separated by 1-2 hours. Alcohol levels may increase if YSP Vesyca is taken simultaneously. This medication also increases the area under the plasma concentration time curve (AUC) and concentration of Metoprolol in blood serum, slows absorption of itraconazole and ketoconazole.
