Medicine overview
Aciloc 150 mg is an oral film-coated tablet containing 150 mg of ranitidine, manufactured by Cadila Pharmaceuticals Ltd. Ranitidine belongs to the histamine H2-receptor antagonist class, commonly called H2 blockers. It reduces the amount of acid produced by the stomach. This acid-lowering action has been used to treat GERD, gastric and duodenal ulcers, and other disorders associated with excessive gastric acid. Aciloc 150 is registered as a 150 mg film-coated tablet in Singapore.
What it is used for
Ranitidine has established uses in acid-related gastrointestinal disorders. These include benign gastric and duodenal ulcers, GERD, erosive esophagitis, Zollinger-Ellison syndrome and other conditions where reducing gastric acid is beneficial. Depending on the jurisdiction and product labeling, it may also be used for short-term relief of heartburn, acid indigestion, dyspepsia, and hyperacidity. The appropriate indication and duration depend on the patient's diagnosis and local product labeling.
How it works
Ranitidine competitively and reversibly blocks histamine H2 receptors on acid-producing cells in the stomach. Histamine normally stimulates these cells to release gastric acid. Blocking this signal reduces both daytime and nighttime acid secretion as well as acid production stimulated by food. Lower acid levels can relieve acid-related symptoms and provide conditions that allow ulcers or inflamed tissue in the esophagus to heal.
How it is taken
Aciloc 150 is swallowed by mouth. Ranitidine tablets can generally be taken with or without food because food does not significantly impair absorption. The dose and treatment duration vary substantially according to the condition being treated and kidney function, so follow the prescribed or locally approved product directions rather than creating your own dosing schedule. Patients with impaired kidney function may require dosage adjustment.
Important warnings
Do not use ranitidine if there is known hypersensitivity to ranitidine or the product ingredients. Ranitidine is mainly eliminated through the kidneys, so impaired renal function can increase exposure; caution is also advised with liver dysfunction. It should be avoided in people with a history of acute porphyria. Improvement of symptoms does not exclude gastric cancer, so persistent, new, or changing gastrointestinal symptoms require appropriate assessment. Important interactions include warfarin, procainamide and medicines whose absorption depends on stomach acidity, including ketoconazole, atazanavir, delavirdine and gefitinib; exposure to oral midazolam, triazolam and glipizide may also change. Historical ranitidine products were withdrawn in several markets because NDMA, a probable human carcinogen, could increase during storage. In November 2025, the FDA approved a reformulated ranitidine product after additional safety review, but this does not establish that Aciloc 150 uses that reformulated formulation. U.S.
Side effects and monitoring
Common or reported effects include headache, constipation, diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, dizziness and rash. Less common but potentially serious reactions include hepatitis or jaundice, pancreatitis, abnormal blood-cell counts, heart rhythm disturbances, severe hypersensitivity or anaphylaxis, angioedema and acute interstitial nephritis. Seek prompt medical attention for difficulty breathing, swelling of the face or throat, severe rash, jaundice, unusual bleeding or bruising, or other severe symptoms. Kidney function may need consideration, particularly in older adults or people with renal impairment; patients taking warfarin require appropriate coagulation monitoring.
Pregnancy
Ranitidine should be used during pregnancy only when clinically needed and after appropriate medical assessment. Older prescribing information reported no evidence of fetal harm in animal reproduction studies at high exposures, but adequate well-controlled studies in pregnant women were lacking.
Breastfeeding
Ranitidine passes into human breast milk. Current LactMed information indicates that the amount received through milk is below doses historically used in newborn infants, but it also notes concerns about ranitidine degradation if the medicine is not appropriately formulated and stored; an alternative medicine may therefore be preferred. Discuss use while breastfeeding with a healthcare professional.
Food, drink and interactions
Alcohol can aggravate heartburn and irritate the stomach, so limiting or avoiding it may help control the symptoms for which ranitidine is used. Studies of ranitidine and alcohol have produced small or no clinically significant changes in blood alcohol concentrations, but alcohol remains a common trigger for reflux symptoms.
Food and drink
Ranitidine tablets may generally be taken with or without food because food does not significantly reduce absorption. For people using acid-reducing treatment for heartburn or reflux, rich, spicy, fatty or fried foods, chocolate, caffeine, alcohol and other individual trigger foods can worsen symptoms.
Storage
Store below 25°C. Protect the medicine from conditions that could affect product stability and follow the storage instructions on the supplied Aciloc package. Because ranitidine has a known history of temperature- and time-related NDMA formation in older formulations, do not use tablets that have been improperly stored or are past their expiry date.
Frequently asked questions
Can I take Aciloc 150 on an empty stomach?
Yes. Ranitidine absorption is not significantly affected by food, so the tablet can generally be taken with or without food. Follow the directions supplied with your medicine or those given by your healthcare professional.
Can I take Aciloc 150 only when I get heartburn?
This depends on why ranitidine has been recommended and the applicable product labeling. Some ranitidine products have been authorized for short-term heartburn relief, while ulcer disease, GERD and other conditions may require a prescribed treatment course.
Why was ranitidine withdrawn, and is it available again?
Older ranitidine products were withdrawn from the U.S. market in 2020 because the NDMA impurity could increase with time and heat. The FDA approved a reformulated ranitidine product in November 2025 after additional safety review, but this approval should not be assumed to apply to Aciloc 150 or to ranitidine products in every country.
Can I take antacids while using ranitidine?
Antacids have been used alongside ranitidine for symptom relief, but very high-potency antacids taken simultaneously may reduce ranitidine absorption. Ask a pharmacist or prescriber how to space the medicines if both are required.
Does Aciloc 150 interact with other medicines?
Yes. Clinically important interactions can involve warfarin, procainamide and medicines whose absorption changes when stomach acidity is reduced, such as ketoconazole and atazanavir. Tell your healthcare professional about prescription, non-prescription and complementary medicines you use.
Can people with kidney problems take ranitidine?
Ranitidine is mainly cleared through the kidneys, so impaired kidney function can increase drug exposure and may require a different dosing regimen. The dose should be determined by the treating healthcare professional.
Can Cheap Generic Med ship Aciloc 150 internationally?
Cheap Generic Med serves multiple international destinations, including the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Singapore, New Zealand, Japan and South Africa. Shipping availability does not establish that ranitidine can legally be imported or supplied in a particular country; local prescription and import requirements may apply.
Will my Aciloc 150 order have tracking?
Under Cheap Generic Med's standard international fulfilment model, tracked shipping is used and a tracking number should be provided after dispatch. Carrier systems can take 24-72 hours to begin showing movement.
