Question:
Why can't I find generic ranitidine in any stores right now?
I've been buying ranitidine at Costco for a really nice price the last five years. My dad's doctor has him taking about five of the 75 mg. pills a day. Neither of us can find the cheap generic, but we can find the expensive Zantac. I live in Texas and he lives in Iowa. Did the factory burn down? Did they have sanitation issues? Am I going to go broke getting rid of my heartburn?
Answers:
I think it must be a factory issue of some sort. I live in texas as well, but I travel weekly across the US, and it's not to be found. My wife and I relied on our supply from WalMart, which currently doesnt even have a shelf spot for it. Target is all out as well, but fear not...it looks like it may return around July 8th to July 11th, at least at Target. I noticed that their empty shelf spots were marked with dates, and the pharmacist told me thats when they expect more.
