Rabeprazole


Generic Name: Rabeprazole (rahb-EH-pray-zahl)
Brand Name: Aciphex

Rabeprazole is used for:

Treating duodenal ulcers, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), erosive or ulcerative GERD, and a condition where pancreatic tumors cause over-production of gastric acid (Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome). It also may be used with certain antibiotics to treat certain types of ulcers. It may also be used to treat other conditions as determined by your doctor.

Rabeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI). It works by reducing gastric acid secretion by blocking the final step of acid production by the stomach lining.

Do NOT use Rabeprazole if:

  • you are allergic to any ingredient in Rabeprazole

Contact your doctor or health care provider right away if any of these apply to you.

  • if you have allergies to medicines, foods, or other substances
  • if you have severe liver problems

Some MEDICINES MAY INTERACT with Rabeprazole . Tell your health care provider if you are taking any other medicines, especially any of the following:

  • Imidazoles (eg, ketoconazole, voriconazole) because actions and side effects of Rabeprazole may be increased
