What symptoms does Maximum Strength Zantac relieve and

* Maximum Strength Zantac 150 relieves and prevents
heartburn associated with acid indigestion and sour
stomach.
* Eating or drinking certain foods or beverages, and
even lying down to sleep, can cause heartburn
associated with acid indigestion and sour stomach. It
is normal for the stomach to produce acid, especially
after consuming food or beverages. However, acid in
the wrong place, such as the esophagus, or too much
acid, can cause burning pain and discomfort.

stoma h acid. This is what makes Maximum Strength
