Are You a Cancer Patient in California that Has Taken Zantac in the Past?
In the last few years, researchers have compiled substantial evidence that the prescription antacid drug Zantac (ranitidine hydrochloride) is linked to the chemical known as NDMA, which is proven to cause cancer after prolonged exposure or ingestion. All Zantac products have been recalled from California markets by the FDA.
Individuals who have experienced complications as a result of taking Zantac are being encouraged to come forward. At Van Law Firm, our California Zantac attorneys are currently accepting both personal injury and wrongful death cases, in order to fight against the negligent and greed-fueled behavior of the drug’s manufacturers.
What is Zantac?
Zantac is one the most popular antacid and gastrointestinal medications in the US. It is typically taken to help treat ulcers, acid reflux, and heartburn. Even though it has been available for nearly 40 years, the full extent of its dangers have just begun to be realized. Ranitidine is the active ingredient of Zantac and other over-the-counter alternatives.
It’s been discovered that unstable compounds in ranitidine molecules break down over time and produce unsafe levels of NDMA. One study conducted by Valisure Pharmacy revealed that one 150 mg Zantac tablet can contain up to 3 million nanograms of NDMA, which is over 30,000 times more than the FDA’s safe daily limit of just 96 nanograms.
