Anons, the FDA just pulled Zantac off market. Zantac is the brand name for ranitidine. I searched PubMed for ranitidine and coronavirus and this research came up. I don't know enough biochemistry/medicine to evaluate whether this is significant but it at least seems suspicious given that “We didn’t observe unacceptable levels of NDMA in many of the [Zantac] samples that we tested”. See the PDF and snapshot, here is the original published full text link:

The HKMJ research text mentions ranitidine bismuth citrate, so I looked that up. Like Zantac it can be used for heartburn and stomach ulcers. A contraindication is acute porphyria!

Note - "Ranitidine bismuth citrate was withdrawn from the U.S. market in 1998."

"Before taking this medication, tell your doctor if you have

kidney disease;

liver disease; or

acute porphyria. <<<<←– wut!

You may not be able to take ranitidine bismuth citrate, or you may require a lower dose or special monitoring during treatment if you have any of the conditions listed above."

If

Zantac is a H2 (histamine-2) blocker:

"the regulation of the immune response by histamine"

and

Title: The cytokine storm of severe influenza and development of immunomodulatory therapy

"This evidence partly suggests that the pathology of severe influenza is mediated by cytokine response but not viral load."

"Complications arising from severe influenza are associated with inflammatory cells."

Maybe

Late night hypothesis: might Zantac be like chloroquine, a known quantity unexpectedly effective at relieving coronavirus infections?>>8659384
