Rabiplus Sodium

Updated

AcipHex blocks acid production in the stomach. It is prescribed for the short-term (4 to 8 weeks) treatment of sores and inflammation in the upper digestive canal (esophagus). This condition, known as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), is caused by the backflow of stomach acid into the esophagus over a prolonged period of time. Because GERD can be chronic, your doctor may continue to prescribe AcipHex to prevent a relapse after your initial course of treatment and to relieve symptoms of GERD such as heartburn.

AcipHex can also be prescribed for the short-term (up to 4 weeks) treatment of duodenal ulcers (ulcers that form just outside the stomach at the top of the small intestine), and for Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, a disease which causes the stomach to produce too much acid. The drug is classified as a proton pump inhibitor. It works by blocking a specific enzyme essential to the production of stomach acid. It begins reducing acid within an hour of administration.

AcipHex is sometimes combined with the antibiotics amoxicillin and clarithromycin to treat infections caused by H. pylori, a type of bacteria that lives in the digestive tract and is often associated with recurrent ulcers

Aciphex, which contains the active ingredient Rebaprazole works a little differently than the regular antacids, since it is a proton pump inhibitor, it helps prevent the acid from developing in the first place, while the regular antacids just try to neutralize it after it has already formed.

There is no way to guarantee it will help, the only thing she can do is try it and see if it works for her, just like with any other medication.

Some of the most common side effects may include: nausea, diarrhea or constipation and headache.
