Zantac and constipation

Is it possible that my LO's constipation is from the Zantac?  For the past week she has had hard poops so bad that she pushes to the point she turns purple. In the beginning she woudl have a normal formula poop just after the hard part comes out, but lately, they have all been hard.  I do plan on calling the doctor tomorrow about this.  Has anyone else experienced this with Zantac?  We are also on Gentlease.

We didn't have that problem with just Zantac but both DS and DD were on Similac sensitive but ended up with a milk allergy and we had to switch them to Alimentrum (and Zantac). On the sensitive they both had hard stools. We had to offer 2oz of water a couple times a day and up to 2 bottles with kyro syrup a day (1tsp per 4oz formula). Eventually the problem resolved itself.

I would guess that yes it could.  My DS is on Zantac, and this past week we cut him down and suddenly he is having normal stools again.
