Brief Answer:
Yes

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

Histac (Ranitidine) has been assigned to pregnancy category B by the FDA. Animal studies have failed to reveal evidence of fetal harm. Hence it can be taken safely during pregnancy.

Feel free to ask back in case of further queries.
