Description

Rabeprazole belongs to a class of drugs known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). Rabeprazole is used to treat certain esophagus problems (such as acid reflux, and ulcers), in which the backward flow of acid can cause heartburn and possible injury to the esophagus. Rabeprazole prevents ulcers, heals acid damage to the stomach, and may also help in preventing cancer of 

the esophagus. Rabeprazole is used in combination with other medications to eliminate H. pylori (a bacteria that causes ulcers) in adults.

Directions of use

  • Rabeprazole comes with a delayed release, it is released in the intestine because it can be dissolved by stomach acids. 
  • Delayed-release tablets are taken once a day. If combined with other medication to eliminate H. pylori, it is taken twice a day with morning and evening meals, for 7 days. 
  • Follow the instructions on the label carefully and ask your doctor or pharmacist again, in case of misunderstanding. 
  • Take the medicine as prescribed by the doctor, do not take more or less or take it for an extended period of time. 
  • Do not stop the use of medication on your own, take it even if you feel well and consult with the doctor if the condition gets worse.
  • Antacids can be taken along with this medicine as they neutralize acidity in the stomach.
  • If you are also taking sucralfate, take Rabeprazole 30 minutes prior to sucralfate.
