Composition:
Gastrazole 20 Tablet: Each enteric coated tablet contains Rabeprazole Sodium INN 20 mg.

Therapeutic Class: Anti-Ulcerant

Pharmacology: Rabeprazole sodium is an antiulcer drug in the class of proton pump inhibitors. Rabeprazole Sodium is a substituted benzimidazole which suppresses gastric acid secretion by inhibiting the gastric H+/K+-ATPase enzyme at the secretory surface of the gastric parietal cell. It is an enteric coated tablet, because of its coated formulation, it is highly stable in stomach and because of higher pka value of Rabeprazole Sodium it provides faster onset of action. It blocks the final step of gastric acid secretion. Rabeprazole is absorbed and can be detected in plasma by 1 hour. Rabeprazole is 96.3% bound to human plasma proteins. Approximately 90% of the drugs is eliminated in the urine. The remainder of the dose is recovered in the faeces.

Dose and Administration:

• Healing of Erosive or Ulcerative Gastro Esophageal Reflux Disease (GERD): 20 mg to be taken once daily for 4 to 8 weeks. For those patients who have not healed after 8 weeks of treatment, an additional 8 week course may be considered.

• Healing of Duodenal Ulcers: The recommended adult oral dose is 20 mg once daily for

a period up to 4 weeks. Most patients with duodenal ulcer heal within 4 weeks. A few patients may require additional therapy to achieve healing.

• Helicobacter pylori Eradication to Reduce the risk of Duodenal Ulcer recurrence:
Rabeprazole Sodium
20 mg
Twice Daily for 7 Days
Amoxicillin
1000 mg
Twice Daily for 7 Days
Clarithromycin
500 mg
Twice Daily for 7 Days

It is important that patients comply with the full 7-day regimen. • Treatment of Pathological hyper secretory conditions including Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome: The dosage of Rabeprazole Sodium in patients with pathologic hyper secretory conditions varies with the individual patient. The recommended adult oral starting dose is 60 mg once a day. Doses should be adjusted according to individual patient needs and should continue for as long as clinically indicated. Some patients may require divided doses. Doses up to 100 mg QD and 60 mg BID have been administered. Some patients with Zollinger-Ellision syndrome have been treated continuously with Rabeprazole Sodium for up to one year. Contraindication: Rabeprazole Sodium is contraindicated in patient with known hypersensitivity to Rabeprazole, substituted benzimidazoles or to any component in the product.
