Why would dogs have to take Zantac? how would you know if they
had excess stomach acid?
Yes dogs can use Zantac but would only recomend it is used under
veterinary supervision. If your dog has a stomach ulcer or acid
reflux then zantac can help. some breeds such as Alsations or
Poodles can suffer from "stomach bloat" which can be very painful
for a dog and zantac syrup can help that. DO NOT give zantac
without consulting your vet as the amounts to give are not same as
with a human. I have been prescribed zantac syrup for my Llhasa
Apso who has a stomach ulcer and it helps a lot.
just look up the dosage online

Dosage Of Ranitidine For Dogs.

The usual dosage of Ranitidine for Dogs is 0.25 to 1 mg per pound every 8 to 12 hours.

Your veterinarian can instruct you on how to properly measure the dosage for your dog.

Ranitidine should be given without food, as food makes the medication less effective.
