Aciphex (rabeprazole) for Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease: I lived with severe heartburn for years. It was absolutely crippling at times. I had to essentially watch everything I ate and drank. Aciphex gave me my life back. I recommend looking into it as a possible treatment.

Aciphex (rabeprazole) for Erosive Esophagitis: In my experience Aciphex proved far superior to the generic brand I was given. I don't know the technical difference, but Aciphex (taken once in AM & once in PM) alleviated the painful burnings in my stomach and up to my throat within a few days. The generic form seemed not to work as well or quickly and I suspected as a possible cause of simultaneous depression (which may or may not have been related...)

Aciphex (rabeprazole) for Duodenal Ulcer: I've been sick every morning for over a month, often vomiting, and cannot eat until late in the day. And no, I'm not pregnant. I've only been on Aciphex for about a week and it is the only thing that has made me feel close to normal again.

Aciphex (rabeprazole) for Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease: Medicine appears to be working. On my second day, I have no heartburn. I am a little concerned about my headache that I have had all day today. I am hoping that this is but a small price to pay, if my esophagus will benefit from this medicine.

Aciphex (rabeprazole) for Erosive Esophagitis: I was on other proton pump inhibitors but had a constant headache while using them. Aciphex relieves my symptoms with no percieved side effects. Great drug and I've been on it for over 10 years. I have no evidence of further esophageal erosion and have been diagnosed by biopsy of having Barrett's esophagus. I can eat anything now.

Aciphex (rabeprazole) for Stomach Ulcer: I have been using aciphex for years. First in conjunction with other meds to treat a problem with stomach ulcers and,then and now,to control acid reflux. I have always had great success using this medication. Recently my physician has taken me from a daily dose to an "as needed" dosage.
