Hi
You have been taking ZINCOLAC capasules which contains Calcium d-pantothenate since 27 years without any side effects which are nausea, vomitting, diarrhoea and allergic reactions like severe breathing difficulties, facial swelling, chest tightness and skin rash. But you have none of these. You are to avoid IV calcium/ Ceftriaxone injections. Use with ranitidine hydrochloride(Zantac) may cause Pyrexia, Dyspnoea, Pain In Extremity, Hypoaesthesia, Headache, Deep Vein Thrombosis etc,.
