DESCRIPTION
The active ingredient in Ranitidine Syrup (Ranitidine Oral Solution,
USP) is ranitidine hydrochloride
(HCl), USP, a histamine H
-receptor antagonist. Chemically it is
_N_-[2-[[[5-[(dimethylamino)methyl]-2-
furanyl]methyl]thio]ethyl]- _N_′- methyl-2-nitro-1,1-ethenediamine,
HCl. It has the following structure:
The empirical formula is C
H
N
O
S•HCl, representing a molecular weight of 350.87.
Ranitidine HCl is a white to pale yellow, granular substance that is
soluble in water. It has a slightly
bitter taste and sulfurlike odor.
Each 1 mL of Ranitidine Syrup (Ranitidine Oral Solution, USP) contains
16.8 mg of ranitidine HCl
equivalent to 15 mg of ranitidine. Ranitidine Syrup (Ranitidine Oral
Solution, USP) also contains the
inactive ingredients acesulfame-K, dibasic sodium phosphate, glycerin,
peppermint flavor, propylene
glycol, propylparaben, purified water, methylparaben, monobasic sodium
phosphate, sodium saccharin,
and water (Purified).
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Ranitidine is a competitive, reversible inhibitor of the action of
histamine at the histamine H
-
receptors, including receptors on the gastric cells. Ranitidine does
not lower serum Ca
in
hypercalcemic states. Ranitidine is not an anticholinergic agent.
PHARMACOKINETICS :
_ABSORPTION:_ Ranitidine is 50% absorbed after oral administration,
compared to an intravenous (IV)
injection with mean peak levels of 440 to 545 ng/mL occurring 2 to 3
hours after a 150-mg dose. The
oral solution is bioequivalent to the tablets. Absorption is not
significantly impaired by the
administration of food or antacids. Propantheline slightly delays and
increases peak blood levels of
ranitidine, probably by delaying gastric emptying and transit time. In
one study, simultaneous
administration of high-potency antacid (150 mmol) in fasting subjects
has been reported to decrease the
absorption of ranitidine.
