Millions of people throughout the United States regularly take both prescription and over-the-counter Zantac at the direction of their doctor to treat these conditions.<\/p>\n<p>However, testing by an independent laboratory, and confirmed by the FDA, has discovered that Zantac and its active ingredient ranitidine metabolize into N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA).<\/p>\n<p>NDMA has been classified by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a cancer-causing carcinogen since the 1970s. The FDA states that humans can intake a daily amount of 96 nanograms of NDMA each day safely, but that testing revealed that Zantac 150 mg tablets contained more than 2,500,000 nanograms of NDMA.<\/p>\n<p>The FDA requested that all Zantac medications be removed from the market on April 1, 2020.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"tel:+12152280100\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-42170 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/ciccarelli.com\/philadelphia-injury-lawyers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/philadelphia-zantac-lawsuit-attorney.jpg\" alt=\"Philadelphia Zantac Lawsuit Lawyer\" width=\"100%\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ciccarelli.com\/philadelphia-injury-lawyers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/philadelphia-zantac-lawsuit-attorney.jpg 900w, https:\/\/ciccarelli.com\/philadelphia-injury-lawyers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/philadelphia-zantac-lawsuit-attorney-300x100.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ciccarelli.com\/philadelphia-injury-lawyers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/philadelphia-zantac-lawsuit-attorney-768x256.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Cancers associated with Zantac<\/h2>\n<p>There are various types of cancer associated with Zantac, including the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Prostate Cancer<\/li>\n<li>Liver Cancer<\/li>\n<li>Brain Cancer<\/li>\n<li>Bladder Cancer<\/li>\n<li>Lung Cancer (for non-smokers)<\/li>\n<li>Kidney (Renal) Cancer<\/li>\n<li>Testicular Cancer<\/li>\n<li>Intestinal Cancer<\/li>\n<li>Ovarian Cancer<\/li>\n<li>Stomach Cancer<\/li>\n<li>Throat\/Nasal Cancer<\/li>\n<li>Esophageal Cancer<\/li>\n<li>Thyroid Cancer<\/li>\n<li>Colorectal Cancer<\/li>\n<li>Uterine Cancer<\/li>\n<li>Non-Hodgkin\u2019s Lymphoma<\/li>\n<li>Pancreatic Cancer<\/li>\n<li>Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia<\/li>\n<li>Breast Cancer<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Criteria + Litigation Updates<\/h2>\n<p>To be eligible to join the lawsuits in these cases, a person must have:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Used Zantac or a generic form of ranitidine<\/li>\n<li>Be younger than 64 if diagnosed with prostate cancer<\/li>\n<li>Have used the medication after October 1984<\/li>\n<li>Been diagnosed with these cancers between October 1985 and the present time<\/li>\n<li>Developed one or more of the injuries mentioned above within at least 12 months from the last use of the medication<\/li>\n<li>Use these medications for a minimum of one year<\/li>\n<li>Used Zantac or a generic once a week for a minimum of six months<\/li>\n<li>Been diagnosed with a qualifying injury within 20 years of the last dose of Zantac taken<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A person is not considered eligible for these cases if you:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>They developed lung cancer and have been a smoker in the past 25 years<\/li>\n<li>Developed any of the injuries listed above as a result of a diagnosis prior to using Zantac<\/li>\n<li>Have lived in Michigan while taking Zantac or a generic<\/li>\n<li>Have developed an injury listed above as a result of a non-qualifying cancer<\/li>\n<li>Have developed an injury listed above as a result of any cancer prior to Zantac or generic usage<\/li>\n<li>Are currently being represented by an attorney<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>A multidistrict litigation location was determined in February to be West Palm Beach, Florida, under Judge Rosenberg.
