Yes: Milk of Magnesia (MOM) will coat your stomach and help loosen your stool, so it is often used in the setting of constipation or upset stomach. Zantac (ranitidine) is a histamine blocker medication that is used to reduce the stomach's secretion of gastric acid. Both may be taken safely together, though you may have better results from the Zantac (ranitidine) taking it a half hour before or after the MOM.
