They offer that but little additional information. Is it just Zantac the commercial brand? How do I know if I’m affected?


Not an ad, just my experience: I googled the company, Valisure, that was mentioned in this article and another in the NYT. In addition to selling drugs that they've tested, they'll also take a sample and test your own prescriptions. Price is $40 for their "impurities/carcinogen" analysis. Worry may well be overblown at this point, but my kid was prescribed ranitidine and some peace of mind is worth 40 bucks to me.


Not sure. It is indeed pretty alarming! I take it every day (and have for years) for GERD! :/

Guess I'll try switching to something else and see how it goes.
