Anyone else got this combination? (Doctor at the hospital prescribed this, as I was losing my voice and had heartburn too often) I’ve been taking this for about two and a half years now. I don’t take the ranitidine as I should , I sometimes forget.

Stupidly I’ve just got used to having loose bowels in the mornings and didn’t question it. I phoned my asthma nurse yesterday to see if it had anything to do with fostair (it hasn’t) but didn’t think to ask about ranitidine! I’ve since read the side effects of ranitidine! I’ve the doctors on Monday to discuss it now.

I’ve rescently started HRT too, the menopause that’s something else!! I sit and cry about that one 😢
