On April 1, 2020, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration requested the immediate market removal of all prescription and over-the-counter ranitidine products (Zantac) in the face of alarming data linking ranitidine use to cancer. Testing of some ranitidine medications showed unsafe levels of N-Nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), a substance known to cause cancer. According to the FDA, NDMA in certain ranitidine medications "increases over time and when stored at higher-than-normal temperatures and may result in consumer exposure to unacceptable levels..."

Ranitidine, commonly known by its brand name Zantac, is a popular antacid medication, available over-the-counter and by prescription, commonly used to treat ulcers, acid reflux, heartburn, and various other medical conditions since the 1980's. If you or a loved one has developed cancer after taking Zantac or another medication containing ranitidine, you may be entitled to compensation.
