NURSING IMPLICATIONS Assessment ● Assess patient for epigastric or abdominal pain and frank or occult blood in the stool, emesis, or gastric aspirate. ● Assess geriatric and debilitated patients routinely for confusion. ● Lab Test Considerations: CBC with differential should be monitored pe- riodically during therapy. ● Antagonizes effects of pentagastrin and histamine during gastric acid secretion testing. Avoid administration for 24 hr preceding the test. ● May cause false-negative results in skin tests using allergenic extracts. Histamine antagonists should be discontinued 24 hr before the test. ● May cause anqin serum transaminases and serum creatinine. ● May cause false-positive results for urine protein; test with sulfosalicylic acid. Potential Nursing Diagnoses Acute pain (Indications) Implementation ● Do not confuse Zantac (ranitidine) with Xanax (alprazolam) or Zyrtec (cetirizine). ● ● ● ● tion of antacids within 30 min– 1 hr of ranitidine and take sucralfate 2 hr after ranitidine; may decrease the absorption of ranitidine. PO: Administer with meals or immediately afterward and at bedtime to prolong effect. Doses administered once daily should be administered at bedtime to prolong effect. Shake oral suspension before administration. Discard unused suspension after 30 days. Remove foil from ranitidine effervescent tablets or granules and dissolve in 6– 8 oz water before drinking. IV Administration ● pH: 6.7– 7.3. ● Direct IV: Diluent: Dilute each 50 mg in 20 mL of 0.9% NaCl or D5W for injec- tion. . Concentration: 2.5 mg/mL. Rate: Administer over at least 5 min at a maximum of 10 mg/min. Rapid administration may cause hypotension and arrhythmias. ● Intermittent Infusion: Diluent: Dilute each 50 mg in 100 mL of 0.9% NaCl or D5W. Diluted solution is stable for 48 hr at room temperature. Do not use solution that is discolored or that contains precipitate. . Concentration: 0.5 mg/mL. Rate: Administer over 15– 20 min. ● Continuous Infusion: Diluent: D5W. . Concentration: 150 mg/250 mL (no greater than 2.5 mg/mL for Zollinger-Ellison patients). Rate: Administer at a rate of 6.25 mg/hr. In patients with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, start infusion at 1 mg/ kg/hr. If gastric acid output is ⬎10 mEq/hr or patient becomes symptomatic after 4 hr, adjust dose by 0.5 mg/kg/hr increments and remeasure gastric output. ● Y-Site Compatibility: acyclovir, aldesleukin, alfentanil, allopurinol, amifostine, amikacin, aminocaproic acid, aminophylline, amphotericin B lipid complex, amphotericin B liposome, amsacrine, anikinra, anidulafungin, argatroban, ascorbic acid, atracurium, atropine, aztreonam, benztropine, bivalirudin, bleomycin, bumetanide, buprenorphine, butorphanol, calcium chloride, calcium gluconate, carboplatin, carmustine, cefazolin, cefepime, cefoperazone, cefotaxime, cefotetan, cefoxitin, ceftaroline, ceftazidime, ceftriaxone, cefuroxime, chloramphenicol, chlorpromazine, ciprofloxacin, cisatracurium, cisplatin, cladribine, clindamycin, cyanocobalamin, cyclophosphamide, cyclosporine, cytarabine, dactinomycin, daptomycin, dexamethasone, dexmedetomidine, digoxin, diltiazem, diphenhy䉷 2015 F.A.

Notify health care professional if difficulty swallowing occurs or abdominal pain persists. Inform patient that smoking interferes with the action of histamine antagonists. Encourage patient to quit smoking or at least not to smoke after last dose of the day. May cause drowsiness or dizziness. Caution patient to avoid driving or other activities requiring alertness until response to the drug is known. Advise patient to avoid alcohol, products containing aspirin or NSAIDs, excessive amounts of caffeine, and foods that may cause an increase in GI irritation. Inform patient that increased fluid and fiber intake and exercise may minimize constipation. Advise patient to report onset of black, tarry stools; fever; sore throat; diarrhea; dizziness; rash; confusion; or hallucinations to health care professional promptly. Evaluation/Desired Outcomes ● Decrease in abdominal pain. ● Prevention of gastric irritation and bleeding. Healing of duodenal ulcers can be seen by x-rays or endoscopy. Therapy is continued for at least 6 wk in treatment of ulcers but not usually longer than 8 wk. ● Decreased symptoms of esophageal reflux. Why was this drug prescribed for your patient? Patient/Family Teaching ● Instruct patient to take medication as directed for the full course of therapy, even if feeling better. Take missed doses as soon as remembered but not if almost time for next dose. Do not double doses. ⫽ Canadian drug name. ⫽ Genetic Implication.
