Rabifast 20mg Tablet, containing Rabeprazole 20mg, is a proton pump inhibitor medicine. It is primarily used to manage conditions caused by excessive stomach acid, such as Gastro-esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD), peptic ulcers, and Zollinger-Ellison syndrome (a condition where pancreatic tumors cause increased stomach acid secretion).
GERD is a common digestive condition where stomach acid frequently flows back into the food pipe (oesophagus), causing irritation. Symptoms often include heartburn, chest pain, nausea, a sensation of a lump in the throat, and stomach discomfort.
Peptic ulcers are painful sores that can form on the lining of the stomach, oesophagus, or intestines. Common symptoms associated with peptic ulcers include stomach pain, flatulence, indigestion, vomiting, and fatigue.
Always take Rabifast 20mg Tablet as directed by your physician, preferably before meals. It's important to inform your doctor if you have any pre-existing liver conditions, vitamin B12 deficiency, osteoporosis, or any stomach tumors before starting treatment with Rabifast 20mg Tablet.
