A member asked:
Why does frequent heartburn/indigestion makes my stomach feel anxious like im having anxiety when i'm not? is this normal? zantac (ranitidine) is too strong for me
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Heartburn: Zantac (ranitidine) is not a medication for anxiety. Heartburn/indigestion, feeling of anxiety attack seem to indicate stresses in your life need to be taken care of. It is not what you eat! it is what is eating you!
