Ranirace O Injection

Ranirace O Injection belongs to a group of medicines called gastrointestinal agents used to treat acidity, nausea, and vomiting. Acidity/acid reflux is characterised by excess acid levels leading to heartburn. Nausea is an uneasy feeling in which the person feels an urge to vomit, whereas vomiting is an uncontrollable reflex that expels the contents of the stomach through the mouth.

Ranirace O Injection contains Ranitidine (H2 receptor antagonist) and Ondansetron (anti-emetic). Ranitidine works by blocking histamine H2 receptors located on the stomach lining, thereby reducing gastric acid secretion. Ondansetron works by inhibiting the action of serotonin, a chemical messenger that triggers nausea and vomiting. 

In some cases, Ranirace O Injection may cause side effects such as stomach pain, headache, constipation, irritation and redness at the injection site. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.

Inform your doctor if you are allergic to any components in Ranirace O Injection. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Limited information is available regarding the usage of Ranirace O Injection in children; please consult your doctor if you have any concerns. Keep your doctor informed about all the medicines and your health condition to rule out any side effects/interactions.

Acidity:

• Eat smaller meals more often.
• Avoid smoking and alcohol consumption. Alcohol intake leads to increased production of stomach acid, thereby increasing acidity and heartburn.
• Maintain a healthy weight by regular exercising.
• Avoid lying down immediately after eating.
• Avoid tight-fitting clothes.
• Practise relaxation techniques and avoid stress by doing yoga or meditation.
• Avoid foods such as high-fat, spicy chocolates, citrus fruits, pineapple, tomato, onion, garlic, tea and soda. 
• Avoid sitting continuously, as it may trigger acidity. Take a break of 5 minutes every hour by brisk walking or stretching.

Nausea & Vomiting:

• Eat smaller meals more often.
• Drink fluids to stay hydrated.
• Avoid solid foods until the vomiting stops.
• Avoid foods that might cause stomach upset.
• Take ample rest. Avoid any activity immediately after eating.
• Consume plain, light foods such as bread and biscuits.
• Avoid food with strong flavours and fried food.

Acidity: A mucous layer typically protects the stomach from acid. Excess acid production can erode the mucous layer, resulting in complications such as GERD, acidity, and peptic ulcers. Some symptoms include heartburn, a sour or bitter taste in the mouth, and difficulty swallowing.

Nausea and vomiting: Nausea is an uneasy feeling in which the person feels an urge to vomit, whereas vomiting is an uncontrollable reflex that expels the contents of the stomach through the mouth. Nausea and vomiting may occur separately or together. The common causes include motion sickness, emotional stress, indigestion, food poisoning, high fever or overeating.
