Ranitidine

A histamine H2 receptor antagonist that reduces stomach acid, created in England in the late 1970s and introduced in 1981: for decades it was used against ulcers and reflux. This family brings together the active ingredient, pharmacopoeial impurities, labelled standards, nitrosamines and other impurities.
