Hi,
Tiniba 300 contains tinidazole that is an antiprotozoal medication used in the treatment of various infections like trichomoniasis, amoebiasis, giardiasis, bacterial vaginosis, stomach infections, dental infections etc. Two grams of Tiniba once a day for 3-5 days is the recommended dose according to the severity. On the other hand, Rantac contains ranitidine that is used in the treatment of various gastric symptoms like acid reflux or gastroesophageal reflux disease, gastric ulcers, heartburn, indigestion and many more. The recommended dose of Rantac 150 mg twice daily or 300 mg once daily. Rantac is safe and effective medication for long term use.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
