First introduced in 1981, Zantac became the world’s best-selling prescription drug by 1987. Zantac was marketed as an antacid used to treat heartburn and other stomach-related issues, including stomach ulcers. Zantac was then sold over the counter and manufactured by Sanofi, a pharmaceutical company based in France.
Since September 2019, however, the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) has issued warnings about Zantac and other ranitidine-based drugs. Initially, the FDA issued an advisory in September 2019 that certain scientific studies had found that Zantac and other ranitidine-based drugs may have elevated levels of N-Nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), a carcinogenic substance.
In response to the September 2019 FDA warning, many large stores—including CVS, Walmart and Walgreens—announced that same month they would no longer sell medications containing ranitidine, including Zantac. In October 2019, Sanofi voluntarily recalled Zantac from all stores in the United States and Canada.
Based on additional scientific studies, the FDA issued another warning in April 2020 to Sanofi to stop selling Zantac due to concerns about cancer caused by higher-than-normal levels of NDMA in certain Zantac users.
