Rabeprazole is a drug used to treat stomach ulcers and gastroesophageal reflux disease. It is a proton pump inhibitor that can reduce gastric acid secretion and help relieve gastric discomfort and pain. Rabeprazole is also used to prevent the recurrence of gastric ulcers and to treat Helicobacter pylori infection. In Hong Kong, rabeprazole is usually used as a prescription drug and must be used under the guidance of a doctor. Common side effects include headache, diarrhea, and nausea, but are tolerated by most patients. While using rabeprazole, you should follow your doctor's advice, take the medication as directed, and have regular check-ups. If serious adverse reactions occur or if allergic reactions are suspected, seek medical attention immediately. Rabeprazole is an effective gastric medication, but patients should follow their doctor's recommendations to ensure safety and effectiveness.
Instructions for use: Take orally once daily. It is recommended to take it on an empty stomach, usually within 30 minutes to 1 hour before getting up in the morning. It should be swallowed whole and should not be chewed or broken. If taken with food, it should be taken before breakfast. You should avoid eating too many irritating foods, such as spicy foods or alcohol, while taking this medicine to ensure the effectiveness of the medicine.
Dosage Guidelines: The generally recommended starting dose for adults is 20 mg daily. Depending on the severity of the condition and individual tolerance, the physician may adjust the dose to 40 mg daily. For pediatric patients, the dosage will be based on age and weight, and the appropriate dosage should be determined according to the instructions of the physician. Elderly patients usually do not require dosage adjustments, but should pay close attention to drug reactions. During any dosage adjustment, patients should follow the physician's advice and should not increase or decrease the dosage on their own.
RABEPRAZOLE is a drug that treats stomach acid-related problems. Common side effects include dizziness, diarrhea, nausea and tiredness. A small number of patients may experience skin sensitivity reactions such as rash or allergy. Long-term use of RABEPRAZOLE may increase the risk of fractures, especially in older adults or patients taking high, long-term doses. If you develop serious side effects, such as difficulty breathing or chest pain, seek medical advice immediately. When using RABEPRAZOLE, you should pay close attention to your body's reaction and consult your doctor if there are any abnormalities.

Use caution during pregnancy with rabeprazole, a prescription medication used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease, stomach ulcers, and other gastrointestinal problems. Doctors generally recommend avoiding rabeprazole during pregnancy because there is not enough evidence of its effects on the fetus.
If you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant, tell your doctor so they can find safer treatment options for you. If you are taking rabeprazole and become pregnant, tell your doctor as soon as possible so they can help you make appropriate plans.
During pregnancy, try to avoid using any medicine, including rabeprazole, without your doctor's advice. It is important for your and your baby's health to err on the side of caution. If you have any questions, please always consult your doctor. In case of any discomfort or doubt, seek medical attention immediately.
