CVS pulls Zantac, similar drugs over cancer worries
Read full article: CVS pulls Zantac, similar drugs over cancer worriesDrew Angerer/Getty Images(CNN) - CVS Pharmacy has stopped selling Zantac, as well as its generic version of the heartburn medication, over concerns that they might contain a substance that could cause cancer. CVS, the largest pharmacy chain in the country, said over the weekend it was suspending sale of Zantac and other products which contain ranitidine until further notice. Zantac and its generic counterpart have not been recalled, a statement from CVS said, and the FDA has not recommended that patients stop taking ranitidine products. Numerous recalls have been launched as the FDA found "unacceptable levels" of nitrosamines in several of those common drugs containing valsartan. Customers who have already bought the products can return them to CVS for a refund, CVS said.
