What is Rabeprazole?
Active Ingredients: Rabeprazole
Rabeprazole Capsules are used to treat symptoms or conditions caused by excess stomach acid production. It is indicated for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, a condition where the stomach produces too much acid.
It is also used in H. pylori infections and to help prevent GI bleeding during treatment with NSAIDs.
Rabeprazole (Rabeprazol) is classified as a proton pump inhibitor (PPI). It is a prodrug that is converted into an active sulfenamide form in the body which works by inhibiting the activity of H+, K+ATPase within the gastric cells.
