Looking For A New Acid Relfux Med- Zantac 150?

[Tigercat17]

HI all!

 

Does anyone take Zantac 150 (over the counter) without any problems? I just called the company and they told me they don't put gluten in the product, but can't guarantee cross contamination. And they don't test for gluten.  I hate when companies say that... ugh..

 

Or is anyone taking a different acid reflux medicine that they could recommend?

 

Thanks everyone!

I take Omeprezole (prilosec) and I get the generic and have no problems.  I've bought them from various stores Costco, Walmart, Target  etc... and never had a problem

I have taken the Kirkland (Costco) version of Zantac and have not been glutened. I think you are safe to take that version if there are no gluten ingredients listed on the label.

Thanks Ladies! I started the Zantac 150 today, so we'll see how I feel tomorrow. lol.. I'm pretty sensitive and especially now.. They said they didn't put gluten in it, but they don't test. i know this is the standard answer most of the time. It's just frustrating.  

Judy, I did notice that Walmart Omeprezole says gluten free right on the box!  I couldn't believe it! And when I called and asked about testing, they said they did test for gluten.. Holy Moly!!! I decided not to take it though just because the ppi's don't seem to help me anyway.. lol

Thanks cyclinglady! At least I know where to go if I have problems with the over the counter brand Zantac.

 

Thanks much!!
