Rab gm 20 mg Tablet

Rab gm 20 mg Tablet is a prescription medicine that contains 20 mg of rabeprazole in each tablet. It belongs to the proton pump inhibitor (PPI) class, which lowers the amount of acid your stomach makes. Rab gm 20 mg Tablet is used to treat acid-related conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), erosive esophagitis, and stomach or duodenal ulcers. It may also be used with other medicines for H. pylori infection or to help prevent ulcers in selected patients.

How it works: Rabeprazole in Rab gm 20 mg Tablet blocks acid-producing pumps in the lining of the stomach, which lowers stomach acid at its source. As a tablet, it is swallowed and absorbed before reaching the acid pumps, helping reduce heartburn and giving irritated tissue time to heal.

Rab gm 20 mg Tablet is a full-strength rabeprazole tablet commonly used when a doctor wants standard acid suppression in adults.
