How Does Ranitidine Work?

Ranitidine works by reducing stomach acid production. It is a histamine-2 (H2) blocker that inhibits the action of histamine on the stomach’s parietal cells, which are responsible for acid secretion. Ranitidine binds to H2 receptors and prevents histamine from stimulating these cells, resulting in decreased acid production. This mechanism helps alleviate symptoms associated with conditions like gastroesophageal reflux disease, peptic ulcers, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Ranitidine’s acid-suppressing effect can provide relief from heartburn, indigestion, and other related discomforts, making it effective for both the treatment and prevention of acid-related disorders.
