A member asked:
1 year old on zantac (ranitidine) 2ml twice daily for supposed silent reflux. what are side effects?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Safe: Relatively safe drug with very large margin of safety.I have seen some diarrhea, but that is about it for that dose. And any risk is far outweighed by the risk of the reflux.
