Brief Answer: Its Ranitidine 150mg.Relieves acidity. Detailed Answer: Hi.Thanks for writing. Imprint with L852 is a heart burn pill and contains Ranitidine 150mg.I would advise to have the pill if you have acidity.Should be taken in empty stomach in the morning half an hour before food. If you have burning sensation in the stomach, painful belching or nausea then I were to suggest to take it twice daily (morning and night) for 6 to 8 weeks. Hope this answers your query.
