A member asked:
I took a zantac (ranitidine) 150(generic) how long should i wait to take maalox?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Immediately: Zantac (ranitidine) will decrease acid production and Maalox will help buffer the acid already in your stomach. For my patients having indigestion I usually recommend a drug like Zantac (ranitidine) taken as instructed on package insert along with an antacid like Maalox taken after each meal and at bedtime.
