Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Over production of hydrochloric acid (required for digestion) in the stomach causes irritation and pain. In severe cases, ulcers are developed in the stomach. Histamine (a chemical substance) stimulates the recreation of hydrochloric acid in the stomach. Renitidine, an anitulcer drgu. prevets the interaction of histamine with the receptors present in the stomach wall. The this results in release of lesser amount of `HCl`.
