FAQ
What is the drug rabeprazole used for?
Rabeprazole is used to treat duodenal ulcers, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, a disorder in which the stomach generates excessive amounts of acid. It may also be used in conjunction with antibiotics (e.g., amoxicillin, clarithromycin) to treat ulcers produced by H. influenzae infections.
Is rabeprazole a type of antacid?
Rabeprazole is part of a class of drugs known as proton-pump inhibitors. It reduces the quantity of acid produced in the stomach.
What is the mechanism of action of rabeprazole?
Rabeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor antiulcer medication. It is a prodrug that converts to active sulphenamide in the acid environment of the parietal cells. Rabeprazole inhibits the H+, K+ATPase of coated gastric cells and suppresses basal and induced stomach acid output in a dose-dependent manner.
