Rabeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that decreases the amount of acid produced in the stomach.

Rabeprazole is used short-term to treat symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) in adults and children who are at least 1 year old.

Rabeprazole is used only in adults to treat conditions involving excessive stomach acid, such as Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Rabeprazole is also used in adults to promote healing of duodenal ulcers or erosive esophagitis (damage to your esophagus caused by stomach acid).

Rabeprazole may also be given with an antibiotic to prevent duodenal ulcer caused by infection with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori).

Omeprazole belongs to group of drugs called proton pump inhibitors. It decreases the amount of acid produced in the stomach.

Omeprazole is used to treat symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and other conditions caused by excess stomach acid. It is also used to promote healing of erosive esophagitis (damage to your esophagus caused by stomach acid).

Omeprazole may also be given together with antibiotics to treat gastric ulcer caused by infection with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori).

Anti Ulcer Drugs are medicines used to treat ulcers in the stomach and the upper part of the small intestine.

Ulcers are sores or raw areas that form in the lining of the stomach or the duodenum (the upper part of the intestine). Those that form in the stomach are called Gastric Ulcers; in the duodenum, they are called Duodenal Ulcers. Both types are referred to as Peptic Ulcers. For a long time, physicians thought that stress and certain foods caused ulcers.

Getting the proper treatment for ulcers is important, because ulcers can lead to serious complications, such as bleeding, swelling, and scarring. If the swelling and scarring are severe, the opening between the stomach and intestine may become blocked. Untreated ulcers may also eat through the wall of the stomach or duodenum. When that happens, bacteria and partially digested food may leak into the body cavity and cause a life-threatening condition called peritonitis.

The three basic types of Anti Ulcer Drugs are H2-blockers, Acid Pump Inhibitors, and Mucosal Protective Medications.

H2-Blockers block the production of Histamine, a substance that stimulates acid secretion. By blocking Histamine, these drugs reduce the amount of acid the stomach produces.

Acid Pump Inhibitors completely block the production of stomach acid by stopping the final step in acid secretion.

Mucosal Protective Medications create a protective barrier that allows the ulcer to heal and prevents further damage to the stomach and duodenum.
