I have a high function in my company which has good and bad sides. I am responsible for 60 workers and it did not pass much until I developed stomach ulcers. I have been trying to deal with that condition with Prilosec and it was partially successful, but now I want to try with Zantac. What is the difference between those two?

You should know that even though they have very similar effect, their principle of function is different. Zantac is actually Ranitidine and works by blocking histamine receptors. As for Prilosec, that is Omeprazole and that is a medicament with a prolonged effect, which could last up to 12 hours. This is due to the accumulation of the drug.
