Indication Dosage
Rabeprazole Sodium is a medication that belongs to the class of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). It is commonly used for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), ulcers, and other conditions that involve excessive stomach acid production. Rabeprazole Sodium works by blocking the proton pump in the stomach, which reduces the amount of acid produced, thus providing relief from the associated symptoms. It is usually taken orally in the form of tablets and is available in various strengths.
