Chemistry
Rabeprazole Sodium: C~18~H~20~N~3~NaO~3~S. Mw: 381.42. (1) 1H-Benzimidazole, 2-[[[4-(3-methoxypropoxy)-3-methyl-2-pyridinyl]methyl]sulfinyl]-, sodium salt; (2) 2-[[[4-(3-Methoxypropoxy)-3-methyl-2-pyridyl]methyl]sulfinyl]benzimidazole sodium salt. CAS-117976-90-6; CAS-117976-89-3 (rabeprazole)(1995).
Pharmacologic Category
Antiulcer Agents and Acid Suppressants; Proton-pump Inhibitors; Substituted Benzimidazole. (ATC-Code: A02BC04).
Mechanism of action
Suppresses gastric acid secretion by inhibiting parietal cell H^+^/K^+^ ATP pump.
Therapeutic use
Short-term (4-8 weeks) treatment and maintenance of erosive or ulcerative gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Symptomatic GERD. Short-term (up to 4 weeks) treatment of duodenal ulcers. Long-term treatment of pathological hypersecretory conditions, including Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. H. pylori eradication (in combination with amoxicillin and clarithromycin).
Pregnancy and lactiation implications
Use during pregnancy only if clearly needed. Not recommended in nursing women.
Unlabeled use
Maintenance of duodenal ulcer.
Contraindications
Hypersensitivity to rabeprazole, substituted benzimidazoles (i.e. esomeprazole, lansoprazole, omeprazole, pantoprazole), or any component of the formulation.
Warnings and precautions
Long-term omeprazole therapy caused atrophic gastritis (by biopsy); this may also occur with rabeprazole. No reports of enterochromaffin-like cell carcinoids, dysplasia, or neoplasia occurred. Relief of symptoms does not preclude presence of gastric malignancy. Use of proton pump inhibitors may increase risk of these infections. Use caution in severe hepatic impairment.
