Has anyone been prescribed Zantac during their pregnancy? Unfortunately I spent yesterday in hospital with bad pains at the bottom of my stomach. They thought it may be an ulcer, but prescribed Zantac and to wait and see.

The instructions say not to take during pregnancy, so I'm a bit unsure what to do.

Hi,
I took it for severe reflux with no probs. Like most drugs,they prefer you not to have them but weigh up risk vs benefit in making the decision.
Cheers,
