Zantac / Ranitidine (NDMA Cancer) Attorney in Sacramento, California

Zantac Litigation in Sacramento

Sacramento's large state government workforce represents a demographic with comprehensive pharmacy benefit records through CalPERS — making prescription ranitidine documentation particularly robust. Sacramento County Superior Court applies California's Frye/Kelly standard, which has been applied more favorably than Daubert for Zantac causation experts. UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center provides world-class cancer documentation. The federal Zantac MDL (No. 2924, S.D. Florida) was largely dismissed in 2022 after Judge Robin Rosenberg excluded plaintiffs' causation experts under Daubert. However, the Delaware Superior Court under Judge Vivian Medinilla continues to actively hear Zantac cases and has allowed causation experts to proceed. Defendants Sanofi, Boehringer Ingelheim, GSK, and Pfizer are all actively litigating in Delaware. For most claimants, filing in Delaware Superior Court through national plaintiffs' counsel is now the primary path forward.

Resources for Sacramento Zantac Claimants

Sacramento-area Zantac claimants should obtain CalPERS prescription records (for state employees), as well as pharmacy records from Safeway, Raley's, Walgreens, and CVS. UC Davis Cancer Center and Dignity Health records documenting bladder, esophageal, stomach, or colorectal cancer diagnoses are critical evidence. California's 2-year SOL with the favorable Frye/Kelly standard makes California state court a viable primary venue.
