Product introduction
R-Loc 150 Tablet is used to treat and prevent peptic ulcer disease, GERD, and acidity, including conditions caused by excessive gastric acid secretion such as hypersecretory states, NSAID-related gastric injury, stress-related mucosal damage, and prevention of acid aspiration in high-risk patients.
R-Loc 150 Tablet helps promote the healing of stomach and intestinal ulcers and prevents them from recurring. It is also commonly prescribed to prevent heartburn and ulcers caused by the use of painkillers. Take it exactly as prescribed by your doctor. The dose and duration depend on your condition and response to treatment, so follow your doctor’s instructions carefully.
This medicine usually provides relief from indigestion and heartburn within a few hours, and it may only be needed for short-term use when symptoms occur. However, if you are taking it to prevent ulcers or manage ongoing acid-related conditions, your doctor may advise longer use. Taking it regularly can help prevent symptoms from returning. You can also support your treatment by eating smaller, more frequent meals and avoiding spicy or fatty foods.
Most people do not experience side effects while taking this medicine. However, common ones may include headache, constipation, diarrhea, or mild drowsiness. These effects are usually temporary and improve as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or cause discomfort.

How R-Loc Tablet works
R-Loc 150 Tablet works by blocking histamine H2 receptors on the acid-producing cells of the stomach. This reduces both basal and stimulated secretion of gastric acid, lowering the volume and acidity of stomach contents. By decreasing acid production, ranitidine helps relieve acid-related symptoms and allows irritated or ulcerated areas of the stomach and esophagus to heal.
