I keep hearing Zantac is causing cancer. How long does it take cancer to appear ?

I took Zantac because I had gastritis symptoms. Now I hear that Zantac causes cancer and wished I never went to pills for relief. How long does it take for cancer to appear after you've taken Zantac? I've heard the NDMA in Zantac causes full body cancers in every organ.... This seems like a intentionally made drug to induce cancer.

This is a developing story. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is still investigating whether these chemical impurities are at a high enough level to be a health risk.

I've been researching this since it became public a few months ago, and personally I no longer trust the ((fda))). They let this on the market 35 years ago without testing it... now after decades of use and people getting cancer they are now testing it... My question is how long after you take this Zantac will it take for cancer to appear ?
