histamine at the histamine H -receptors,
including receptors on the gastric cells. ZANTAC does not lower serum
Ca++ in hypercalcemic states.
ZANTAC is not an anticholinergic agent.
PHARMACOKINETICS :
_ABSORPTION:_ ZANTAC is 50% absorbed after oral administration,
compared with 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
syrup 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
