Hi,
Thanks for posting your query.
I am Dr.R.K and i am pleased to assist you.
No Zantac does not cause abdominal pain.
Yes, stress and H.pylori can cause abdominal pain. Painkillers like advil can also cause abdominal pain.
If there is no relief with zantac, you can consider taking aciphex.
I hope that answers your question.
Regards.
