Ranilink Injection is used in the treatment of stomach and intestinal ulcers, heartburn, indigestion and acid reflux disease. It contains ranitidine as its active ingredient. Ranilink Injection is given under the medical supervision of a doctor in a healthcare set-up. Also, inform the doctor about your medical history and about all the medicines and supplements you take or might take.
The stomach produces acid to digest food. When this acid is produced in excess, it can lead to acidity, heartburn and ulcers. Ranilink Injection works by blocking the secretion of gastric acid and thereby reduces the amount of acid present in the stomach. This helps in the relief of acid concerned indigestion and heartburn.
Ranitidine penetrates very poorly into the cerebrospinal fluid but is concentrated into breast milk. After intravenous administration, plasma concentrations decay in a biexponential manner. The elimination half-life is almost 2 hours and is somewhat longer after oral administration.

Q: How long is the usual course of medication?
A: While the duration for which the Ranilink Injection is prescribed varies from person to person based on their condition, it usually starts showing its effect almost immediately.
Q: What is acid reflux?
A: There is a valve-like structure called the sphincter between the food pipe and stomach. This valve prevents the acid and the food in your stomach from coming back into the food pipe. When this valve is weak or damaged, acid starts entering the stomach causing heartburn, difficulty in swallowing and food regurgitation.
Q: Can I reduce my acidity problem by changing my lifestyle habits?
Avoid lying down for three hours after a meal.
Reduce excess weight.
Eat smaller meals more frequently throughout the day.
Wear loose-fitting clothing to avoid pressure on your abdomen.
Quit smoking.
Avoid sugar, processed food, meat, sodas, a high protein diet, etc.
