Sandoz Rabeprazole How to Take

Rabeprazole belongs to the class of medications known as proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). It works by slowing or preventing the production of acid in the stomach. Rabeprazole is used to treat and maintain healing of GERD (Gastroesophageal reflux disease) (GERD). It is also used to treat symptoms, such as heartburn and regurgitation, of non-erosive reflux disease (NERD).

It is also used for short-term treatment in the healing and relief of symptoms associated with duodenal and gastric ulcers. Rabeprazole is used in combination with antibiotics to treat ulcers caused by the bacterium Helicobacter pylori. Finally, rabeprazole is used for long-term treatment of conditions associated with constant production of excess acid in the stomach, including Zollinger-Ellison syndrome.

Medications other than those listed above may interact with Sandoz Rabeprazole. Tell your doctor or prescriber about all prescription, over-the-counter (non-prescription), and herbal medications you are taking.

Since caffeine, alcohol, the Nicotine from cigarettes, or street drugs can affect the action of many medications, you should let your prescriber know if you use them.

Sandoz Rabeprazole Warnings

Before you begin taking a medication, be sure to inform your doctor of any medical conditions or Allergies you may have, any medications you are taking, whether you are pregnant or breast-feeding, and any other significant facts about your health. These factors may affect how you should take Sandoz Rabeprazole.

Diarrhea: When gastric acid is decreased, the number of bacteria normally in the digestive system increases. Occasionally, this can cause serious infection in the digestive tract. If you experience watery, foul-smelling bowel movements after starting to take rabeprazole, contact your doctor as soon as possible.

Liver function: Liver disease or reduced liver function may cause Sandoz Rabeprazole to build up in the body, causing side effects. If you have liver problems, discuss with your doctor how Sandoz Rabeprazole may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of Sandoz Rabeprazole, and whether any special monitoring is needed.

Magnesium levels: Rabeprazole may rarely cause low magnesium levels in people who take Sandoz Rabeprazole for a prolonged period of time. Low magnesium may occur after at least 3 months, but usually after a year of treatment. If you have low magnesium levels in your blood, you should discuss with your doctor about how Sandoz Rabeprazole may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of Sandoz Rabeprazole, and whether any special monitoring is needed.

Methotrexate interaction: Rabeprazole, like other medications in this group, may interact with methotrexate when the two medications are used at the same time. This combination may lead to higher than expected amounts of methotrexate in the body and can cause serious side effects, including kidney damage, irregular heartbeat, Anemia, or infection. If you take rabeprazole, and are also going to receive a dose of methotrexate, discuss with your doctor how Sandoz Rabeprazole may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of Sandoz Rabeprazole, and whether any special monitoring is needed.

Osteoporosis fractures: Long term use of rabeprazole may be related to an increased risk of bone fractures in the hip, wrist or spine, as a result of weakened bones. This risk is further increased if you are at risk of developing osteoporosis. If you have osteoporosis or have risk factors for developing osteoporosis, discuss with your doctor how Sandoz Rabeprazole may affect your medical condition, how your medical condition may affect the dosing and effectiveness of Sandoz Rabeprazole, and whether any special monitoring is needed.

Pregnancy: Sandoz Rabeprazole should not be used during pregnancy unless the benefits outweigh the risks. If you become pregnant while taking Sandoz Rabeprazole, contact your doctor immediately.
