FDA Issues Zantac Recall in 2020

In April 2020, the FDA requested removal of all ranitidine products (Zantac) from the U.S. market while the agency continues to investigate the contaminant: n-nitrosodimethylamine.

NDMA is an environmental contaminant that can be found in processed foods and drinking water. According to reports, low levels of NDMA have not been proven dangerous. However, NDMA may be dangerous at sustained, higher levels and may lead to an increased risk of cancer.

Early findings suggest that impurity levels in ranitidine-based products like Zantac increases over time and when stored at higher than room temperatures.


Several countries have either banned or stopped shipments of Zantac including the U.S., Canada, and the U.K.

The FDA urges individuals to discard Zantac if found at home and to talk to a physician about alternative medications to treat heartburn.

Get the Representation You Deserve

Depending on the individual case, consumers may be eligible to file a personal injury lawsuit against the manufacturers of Zantac.

Our law firm is currently investigating reports of stomach, bladder, kidney, pancreatic, and colon cancer related to Zantac heartburn medications.

At Gemma Law Associates, Inc., our dangerous drug attorneys understand the complexities of pharmaceutical law. Releasing an ineffective or harmful drug is a serious offense and the responsible party could owe the injured substantial damages.

After spending 8 hours in a hospital overnight to get stitches in my lip because of a drunk driver’s negligent decision to get behind the wheel, the last thing I wanted to do was think about it all. I sent an email to Gemma Law, and Mark Gemma quickly called me back with an empathetic approach to listening to my story and helping me figure out the next steps. When he told me I wouldn’t have to have any contact with the insurance companies, I was HOOKED! When he pointed out how unfortunate it was I might have to miss out on a lip modeling career from a potential scar from the stitches, I was SOLD! And when I finally received my settlement check after letting him do all the leg work while I just focused on recovering, I was and am eternally GRATEFUL! Mark Gemma helped me turn a near death experience into a new start in life and I highly recommend him to anybody needing a personal injury lawyer.
