How Long Does Ranitidine Take To Be Effective?

Dear Dr.Andrew I have taken Ranitidine 150 mg for the second day which was prescribed by my PCD. Normally how long will it takes for the full recovery and for the minor pain to go off. The troubling pain and gassy symptom has subsided but off and on there is still a slight pain. I have been advised to take this medication twice a day for 2 weeks, I took one tab this morning before breakfast and what is the best time to take the second tab? Your kind advice is very much appreciated. Regards Ronnie Beng Chiew MI
