Hi
Has anyone else taken zantac during pregnancy??
I'm nearly 34 weeks pg and was suffering all the time with acid reflux, someone recommended zantac, I've done a little research and alot of pg women have taken it with no ill effects, I took it over the weekend just to get some relief, it worked a treat, just wondered if anyone had took it for a reasonable amount of time without ill effects, I'm seeing m/w tomorrow so will ask her, think I just need reassurance that it's ok to take, I don't like takin anything for fear of hurting the baby!!

I know,i asked the doc to do gaviscon advance on prescription as it was soooooo expensive,the peptic we both have is just a cheaper version and i swig it all day long,so to me there is no point taking it if i am taking that much!
Nearly fainted twice on the school run this morning  _________________

Thanx ladies, I've got peptac off doc, tried rennies, tums, gaviscon but nothing seems to give me any relief, just been prescribed ranitidine 150mg, so hopefully these will help!! Xx _________________
