No: You may already have gastritis or GERD, one pill of ibuprofen would just trigger it for one day not for two months, you can keep taking the zantac as needed, read the labels carefully and don't exceed recommended dosage and duration, till you see your doctor for a definitive diagnosis and treatment , good luck
