Thus, Zantac is frequently prescribed to patients who need to prevent or treat stomach or intestine ulcers. Zantac has been actively used to treat numerous conditions related to the increased acid production, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome and others. Additionally, the drug improves disorders connected with acid backup from the stomach into the esophagus, leading to severe heartburn.
