My husband takes it and swears it helps decrease his appetite. I say its a bunch of bull and a waste of money. How safe and effective is it?

When I search around for 'credible' information on Zantex 3, it's hard to find things that aren't designed to sell it in some fashion. Personally it doesn't seem like something I'd take.
But I did find a Business Week article on it that you may wish to read:

i tried it.. and it didn't help on eating less.. but i had ALOT of energy.
Well its more of an energy rush .. ans MOST ppl crash at the end of the day.. and when they stop taking it! I did.. it was aweful.. for like two weeks after I stopped taking it.. it was just not worth it!!
oh yea.. and i stoped taking it bc i took them one day and as soon as i ate, my body got all red and itchy..well it was a side effect.. and it just really freaked me out. I guess some pills don't have the some amount of stuff in them.. and the ones that have more can give you that side effect. It was just not a pretty feeling.. it went away in about two hours.. but i couldn't handle it!

There are risks with all medication/pills. It should have them posted on the box. Personally I have never taken them, but a lot of people do swear by them.

I don't think it's nearly as safe and effective as simply eating less and exercising more.
