Rabeprazole "I was diagnosed with Barrett's esophagus and GERD 19 years ago. My doctor put me on Aciphex, and it worked great. My next scope showed Barrett's was healed, but I was still taking Aciphex for GERD until insurance would no longer pay for it. I could not afford the atrocious cost of Aciphex and switched. I have tried all OTC, prescription Prilosec, and Prevacid. None have worked as well as Aciphex. I also have epilepsy and have to be mindful of drug interactions even with PPIs. It's really sad that pharmaceutical and insurance companies dictate to consumers what they can and can't take based on monetary greed. Who knows better than the consumer what is best and works best in treating their physical health and well-being."

Rabeprazole "Have taken Aciphex for 20 years until insurance companies refused to cover this and all PPI drugs. I have suffered ever since. Aciphex 3 years ago cost $20.00 per 30 tablets. Then in 2015, this medication increased to $378.00 per 30 tablets. Now my insurance company will not cover this drug. I am on my own. No PPI prescription drugs anymore. So, for every action, there is an opposite and equal reaction. Scopes yearly, which will cost my insurance company more than a year of this drug. Idiots. Nothing works except Aciphex 20 mg."

Rabeprazole "Works well, can manage most foods without any problems. Note that this medicine does promote food moving through one's system more quickly, so frequent bowel movements and loose stool may be an issue for some."

"Just finished a year on rabeprazole 20 mg. I have had so many negative side effects and lab reports. Most of the side effects came up slowly but were awful. Just stopped and had ten days of horrible withdrawal symptoms."

"Rabeprazole B683 tan/yellow pill works great. I have used it for many years for GERD. I get my medication from Walmart, and they switched to a green pill. The Rabeprazole green pill 07 does not work very well at all for me, and I started gaining weight. After persistent Walmart agreed to fill my prescription for Rabeprazole, my GERD went away, and I have started losing weight again. Rabeprazole B 683 is distributed by Advagen Pharma Limited, 666 Plainsboro Road, Suite 605, Plainsboro, NJ 08536, USA."

"Has been the worst time with an abundance of stomach acid and pain while using this medicine, and insurance won't cover the AcipHex anymore."
