A member asked:
Hi i'm on ranitidine, i have awful palpitaions and headaches, will this go away i'm very breathless too....?

Maybe: Ranitidine is known to cause headaches. Palpitations may be caused by something else. If you are early in this treatment the headaches may abate. If not, talk to you physician about switching to another drug in this class. This sometimes works.
