Zantac Users Patiently Await Answers About Zantac Cancer

Valisure testing pharmacy may have caused NDMA to increase by their testing

Wednesday, August 26, 2020 - Millions of people may suffer from anxiety of not understanding why and their popular drug has been recalled, and more importantly if their health has been compromised. Millions of heartburn sufferers were taking over the counter heartburn and acid reflux medication Zantac until the FDA issued a mandatory recall of the drug just a few months ago. People's worry has increased by the Coronavirus pandemic and the uncertainties that the situation has thrust on everyone.

The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does not know why NDMA increases to carcinogenic levels. Preliminary research indicates it may be due to storing the medicine at a high temperature or in a humid environment. Exposing tablets to light may also cause NDMA to increase. The FDA has made getting to the bottom of the Zantac, NDMA mystery a top priority, and tests are currently underway. On April 1, 2020, the FDA recalled all packages of ranitidine and Zantac and has advised those that were using it to throw unused tablets in the garbage. The reason for the recall was that an independent researcher found Zantac tables tested had developed higher-than-normal levels of NDMA. According to the FDA, "FDA has found N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) levels in some ranitidine products increase with time and temperature posing a risk to consumers, and therefore the agency has requested the withdrawal of all ranitidine products from the U.S. market." Heartburn sufferers are advised to improve their diet and lifestyle to help treat heartburn and acid reflux. If acid reflux persists one should seek the advice of their doctor as stomach acid leaching back up into the esophagus could cause esophageal cancer.

You could have developed one of many different types of cancer like stomach cancer, bladder, esophagus, prostate, breast, colon, or other from taking Zantac regularly over many years. Chances are if you have developed cancer, you will not know it until it is too late and nearly impossible to control. Cancer has a ten to twenty year latency period when it incubates inside a victim before symptoms of pain, lethargy, etc., present themselves and require a doctor's examination. It is good advice to see your doctor for a cancer screening if you were a regular Zantac user. Thousands of Zantac cancer victims have sought the guidance of a Zantac Cancer Lawyer to see if they qualify to file a claim against Sanofi, the maker of the world's best-selling antacid.

Sanofi is under investigation by the US Department of Justice of possibly lying to federal authorities about what they knew about NDMA in their medicine. Sanofi insists that they have taken proper precautions when they first heard about NDMA increases in Zantac and voluntarily withdrew the product from the market.

On the other hand, consumers that used Zantac may have nothing to worry about. Sanofi also claims that online testing pharmacy Valisure may have caused the increases in NDMA themselves in their testing process, an interesting twist to say the least.
