Suggest Remedy For Severe Headaches Caused By Zantac

how do I deal with the headache side effect of Zantac? I have never been in so much headache pain in my life. I took one pill yesterday morning, wasn t able to sleep all night and the pain in my head is astronomical. I didn t make the connection until my husband read the side effects, right after I took my pill just now.
