Patient summary

Rabeprazole gastro-resistant tablets at 10mg and 20mg, used for reflux disease and duodenal ulcer. A proton pump inhibitor that cuts stomach acid output.

Mechanism of action

This medication acts as a proton pump inhibitor, reducing the amount of acid produced in the stomach. It specifically targets and suppresses the final step of gastric acid secretion by inhibiting the enzyme responsible for pumping acid ions.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding

Pregnancy: Use only if strictly necessary and advised by a medical professional. Breastfeeding: Confirm breastfeeding suitability with a qualified clinician or pharmacist before use.

Aciphex contains rabeprazole, a medication primarily used for managing Gastro-oesophageal Reflux Disease and Duodenal Ulcer. Often recognised as a proton pump inhibitor, the active ingredient is also marketed under brands including Pariet and Rabicip. Aciphex is supplied as a tablet in 10mg and 20mg strengths.

Buying Aciphex online

Generic rabeprazole provides a more affordable alternative to the original Eisai brand. This offers better access for expats and people living across Asia who are far from a well-stocked pharmacy.

What you will receive

Aciphex is the originator brand name, made by Eisai. We use it here to identify the medicine only; we are not affiliated with Eisai and do not ship the original Aciphex.

  • You receive a generic equivalent: the same active ingredient (Rabeprazole) at the same dose, mostly recognised branded generics from vetted manufacturers.
  • The exact brand supplied depends on what is in stock at the dispatching warehouse.
  • Inactive ingredients, tablet appearance and packaging can differ from the original brand; the active ingredient and dose are the same.
