Zantac has announced a recall of Zantac, its prescription acne medication. The manufacturer of this product has determined that the high temperatures which produce the effects of the drug in the affected patient are likely to have caused this condition. A patient of this medication who is affected by this problem should not use another product that contains or was treated with this medication and should consult a doctor immediately.

Zantac, a trademark of Janssen Pharmaceuticals, is marketed under several names. The most commonly distributed medicine is Zantac, also known as Actonel. The other names in this product's distribution network are Actonel, Aindra, Aciphex, Acmepril, Benoxyl, Carxidine, Estrox, Imanol, Miraplex, Phenaphen, Protonix, Sensotec and Ultram. The drug makers have also issued several recalls due to reports of serious liver failures and to reports of chest pain, upset stomach and nausea.

On March 7th, Zantac released a medical recall for the seven products that had been previously recalled. These include Zantac, Actonel, Aindra, Aciphex, Acmepril, Benoxyl and Carxidine. A total of 5.6 million doses of these medicines were distributed to patients in the United States by different manufacturers between 2021. Since these medicines are used for different conditions, it is important to state that there may have been possible misrepresentation of the drug and its intended use.

In North Carolina, on September 10th, Zantac was notified of a potential recall due to reports of an incident in which one pharmacy contained traces of the material identified in the earlier Zantac recall. The reported case was that of a woman who became extremely ill and exhibited gastrointestinal symptoms, including nausea, vomiting and severe diarrhea. It was later determined that the case was not caused by Zantac but by the combined use of prescription pain killers and laxatives. As part of the company's investigation, samples of the suspected pills were tested by the state attorney general and the lab came out positive: it did in fact contain hydrocodone, the ingredient in Zantac. Hydrocodone may contain options and other substances that may be harmful to the general public if consumed, so this recalled product was recalled along with all others containing hydrocodone.

The second recall which was issued by Zantac involved a number of over-the-counter brands-namely, diet pills. Specifically, it included diet supplements such as Aciphex, Adipex and Driven. This was the second largest recall of its kind. While the ingredients in these products were found to be present in Zantac, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is recalling these products due to the fact that they could potentially be contaminated with acetaminophen or other medications that belong to the diet supplement category. Since diet pills are not commonly used by patients who have acute pain or acute discomfort, this is the type of product that typically contaminates other products. You can check this link for further details.

The third recall is one which involves the painkiller ranitidine. A lot of gastrointestinal problems have been associated with ranitidine. Ranitidine, which was marketed under the names Desyrel, Desyrellex, Lexapro and Sumo for children, is an anti-emetics which belongs to the benzodiazepine group of prescription drugs. It works by blocking the actions of certain neurotransmitters in the brain that causes the brain to feel anxious. If you have taken ranitidine and believe it contributed to your child's death or disability, contact the FDA right away for more information.
