Lawsuit Alleges Zantac Caused Bladder Cancer, After Nearly 20 Years Of Use November 11, 2019 Irvin Jackson Add Your Comments A California man indicates that side effects of Zantac caused bladder cancer after nearly 20 years of exposure to the popular heartburn drug, indicating that the active pharmaceutical ingredient ranitidine transformed into a cancer-causing chemical. The complaint (PDF) was filed by Joseph John Balistreri in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California on November 1, indicating that the drug makers Boehringer Ingelheim, Sanofi U.S. Services, Chattem, Inc., Pfizer, Inc. and GlaxoSmithKline, LLC sold tablets that exposed users to a potent carcinogen since 1983. The lawsuit comes in the wake of Zantac recalls issued by various drug makers in recent weeks, after it was discovered that pills contained high levels of the chemical N-Nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA), which has been linked to reports of bladder cancer, stomach cancer, colorectal cancer, esophageal cancer and other cancers along the digestive tract. ZANTAC LAWSUITS Did you or a loved one take recalled Zantac? Side effects of Zantac may increase the risk of cancer, due to chemical impurities found in the heartburn drug. Learn More SEE IF YOU QUALIFY FOR COMPENSATION ZANTAC LAWSUITS Did you or a loved one take recalled Zantac? Side effects of Zantac may increase the risk of cancer, due to chemical impurities found in the heartburn drug. Learn More SEE IF YOU QUALIFY FOR COMPENSATION Balistreri indicates that he began taking over-the-counter Zantac in 2000, and continued taking the pills, usually two to three times a week, into this year. He received a bladder cancer diagnosis in November 2018, but it was not until the recent recalls that he discovered that there was a link between Zantac and cancer. “Had any Defendant warned Plaintiff that Zantac could lead to exposure to NDMA or, in turn, cancer, Plaintiff would not have taken Zantac,” the lawsuit states. “After being diagnosed with cancer, Plaintiff investigated what could have caused his cancer, but to no avail until recently when he heard about the connection of Zantac to NDMA and cancer.” The link between Zantac and NDMA did not become publicly known until September 2019, when the online pharmacy Valisure released the results of independent testing, which found that each Zantac tablet may contain 29,000 times the daily permissible limit of NDMA set by the FDA. Valisure filed a Citizen’s Petition calling for all Zantac to be recalled, leading most manufacturers and pharmacies to pull Zantac from the market. The FDA recently acknowledged that the <a href="https://www.aboutlawsuits.com/zantac-cancer-impurities-found-161760/"problems with Zantac and generic equivalents, indicating that excessive levels of NDMA have been detected. While the agency indicates that the levels were not as high as the Valisure tests, the FDA has stated that the recalls were warranted and urged consumers to switch to different heartburn medications. Zantac (ranitidine) has been widely used by millions of Americans for treatment of heart burn and acid reflux. As individuals diagnosed with bladder cancer and other injuries contact Zantac lawyers in the coming weeks and months, it is widely expected that thousands of similar product liability lawsuits may be filed by former users of the heartburn medication.

Ive taken Zantac or Rinitidine ever since, the medication worked great but I would never have taken it no matter how well it worked had i known the risks. I believe i have contracted something bad in my colon but ive been too scared to go and get checked out. Im 51 yrs old and now it weighs heavily on my mind because there is a good chance i may not have as long to live because of my fear and inaction. So this week im definately going to start the process, i would rather speak with an attorney first though. They may be able to help in referring me to a Doctor that will go over my entire physical being inside and out on the hunt for any potential cancers that may be lurking in my body.

He was my bestfriend and the only reason I’m willing to even entertain the thought of filing is that he would want me to, however, I live in Michigan an they’re telling me that because I live in Michigan they’re exempt from liability and to me that sounds crazy.

One night I had it so badly I went to the emergency and the next day I had to have my gallbladder removed. Then in 2009 I was diagnosed with stage 4 beat cancer. Was in surgery within a week getting a double mastectomy. I am single so as you could imagine I have lots of low esteem about my body and will not get intimate with any man.

It was the only antacids that worked, so I continued to take it until they pulled it off the shelf. About 15 years ago, I came down with a chronic cough along with a large amount of mucus, that came up when I coughed. I was diagnosed with bronchiactisis, trachea myalgia along with a few other things that has to do with my pulmonary problems. I also developed a large amount of nodules in my lungs. I have a larger one in my right lung that has been slowly growing and has become more dense from 2011 to now. In my doctors notes, I read that his impression was that it could possibly be carcinoma. I haven’t found a Pulmonary doctor that would do a biopsy to see if it was or wasn’t cancer. I have suffered badly with horrible chest pains, that goes from the middle of my chest (between my breast) straight through to my back at times, but the chest pains hurt me day and night. I don’t sleep at night because of the mucus comes up and fills up my mouth, that wakes me up and I get rid of it. It’s the consistency of very thick glue. I have one bronchial tube that almost completely occluded. Several years ago I found a tumor in my right breast and had it removed before it got to the cancer stage.
