Hello,

The low pressure while passing urine, constipation and feeling sleepy is the assembly of side effects related to the Normaxin via its actions over the smooth muscles of the GIT and genitourinary tract.

Ranitidine is not at fault. It is strongly recommended to discontinue further dose intake of Normaxin and approach to your consultant office for further guidelines.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
