  • Description

    Rabeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor, a medication that reduces stomach acid and is used to treat a variety of conditions caused by excess stomach acid. Ingesting this medication works by inhibiting the proton pump, an enzyme that produces hydrochloric acid, in the stomach wall. This, in turn, inhibits the secretion of hydrochloric acid into the stomach, reducing acidity and alleviating symptoms such as heartburn and indigestion. This medication also works as an anti-reflux agent, helping to treat GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease). Heartburn and acid reflux are symptoms of GERD, which is caused by stomach acid backing up into the esophagus. Rabeprazole reduces stomach acid, therefore, preventing this backflow and minimizing GERD symptoms.

  • In case of Overdose

    Rabeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) and is used to treat stomach and duodenal ulcers, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and zollinger-ellison syndrome. Like all medications, it carries the risk of adverse effects, including complications such as acute interstitial nephritis, an inflammation of the kidneys. An overdose of Rabeprazole could lead to these complications and require monitoring and symptomatic treatment. The prognosis greatly depends on clinical intervention in the form of renal support and careful volume management. However, in rare cases, seizures, coma, or death may occur.

  • Missed Dose

    If you have missed a dose of Rabeprazole, it is important to take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose, it is recommended to skip the missed dose and continue on with your regular schedule. This is to prevent double dosing, which can be harmful. If you are unsure of what to do, or have missed multiple doses, it is best to consult with your physician or pharmacist for guidance on how to move forward. It is important to remember that taking your medications as directed and at the scheduled time is essential for achieving positive outcomes and reducing the risk of deterioration of your condition.

  • How To Use

    Rabeprazole is a medication prescribed to treat certain symptoms affecting the stomach and esophagus. It is important to only take this medication under the guidance of a medical professional and as prescribed for it to be effective and safe. This medication is taken once a day, around 20-30 minutes before a meal, as prescribed depending on your condition and response to the treatment. It is important to take it regularly, as prescribed, even if you feel better, to ensure you get the full benefits from the medication. Drinking plenty of fluids is recommended while taking Rabeprazole to avoid dehydration. You must avoid lying down for at least 10 minutes after taking the medication. Rabeprazole may be taken with or without food, but it is advisable to take it with food to avoid an upset stomach. You must inform your doctor or pharmacist about any other medications you are taking, including over-the-counter drugs, vitamins, and supplements to avoid any drug interactions. Alcohol should be avoided while taking Rabeprazole as it may increase the risk of adverse effects. Talk to your doctor if you have any allergies or sensitivities to any ingredients in Rabeprazole.

  • When Not to Use

    Discerning instances where this medication may not be appropriate:

    • When you are allergic to Rabeprazole or any of its ingredients. Symptoms of an allergic reaction include rashes, itchiness, swollen lymph nodes, swollen eyes, and breathing difficulties. If you experience any of these symptoms, you should get medical help immediately.
    • When you have a stomach infection. Rabeprazole reduces stomach acid, and stomach acid helps to kill bacteria that could cause infections. So, lower levels of stomach acid may result in the bacteria surviving and continuing to cause infection.
    • When you have an upcoming surgery, contact your healthcare provider as you may be advised to stop taking Rabeprazole temporarily as it may cause bleeding risks.
    • When you are taking other medications as it can interact with a number of other drugs, including some antibiotics and medications for HIV.
