Frequently asked Questions about Rafron 10 Tablet

Question over 5 years ago

What is Rafron?

Dr. Yogesh Kumar MBBS , General Physician

Rafron is a brand name for rabeprazole. It belongs to a class of medications known as proton pump inhibitors. It is available in the form of a tablet, capsule, and injection. Rafron is used to alleviate the symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disorder (GERD). GERD is a condition in which acid back-flows from the stomach to the esophagus (the tube which connects the stomach with throat) causing heartburn and injury to the esophagus. Rafron is used to prevent this damage. Rafron is also used to treat conditions like Zollinger Ellison syndrome (excessive acid is produced by the stomach). It is used for the treatment of ulcers (sores in the lining of stomach and intestine) and also used in combination with other antibiotics (such as amoxicillin and clarithromycin) to manage H.pylori infection.

Question about 5 years ago

How long can I take Rafron?

Dr. OP Kholwad MBBS , General Physician

Rafron should be taken for as long as it is prescribed by your doctor. Do not stop taking it or take an extra dose on your own. Always follow the instructions of your doctor completely. 

Question over 5 years ago

Does Rafron cause diarrhea?

Dr. Saurabh Dhamdhere MBBS , Orthopedics

Yes, Rafron use is associated with the development of diarrhea. This might be related to an infection caused by Clostridium difficile. If you experience severe diarrhea after consuming this medicine, inform the doctor right away without further delay. In addition, one must take a lot of electrolytes and fluids for preventing dehydration. Taking an anti-diarrheal medication may also help.

Question about 5 years ago

Does Rafron cause stomach cancer?

Dr. Braj Bhushan Ojha BAMS , Gastroenterology, Dermatology, Psychiatry, Ayurveda, Sexology, Diabetology

Rarely Rafron causes stomach cancer. There has been no direct relationship to establish the fact. However, stomach cancer and other cancers may develop because of recurring acid reflux for a long time for example 7 - 8 years or more. If you feel any symptoms associated with cancer such as consistent low-grade fever, weight loss due to unexplained reasons, and pain in the abdomen, do not hesitate to get it diagnosed by a physician. 

Question over 5 years ago

Does Rafron cause high blood pressure?

Dr. Vinod Verma MBBS , Diabetology

No, Rafron doesn't cause high blood pressure. High blood pressure can be managed by losing some amount of weight, doing some kind of physical activity on a daily basis, eating a healthy diet, reducing sodium in the diet, limiting the amount of alcohol and caffeine, quitting smoking, and taking less stress. If your blood pressure doesn't get controlled, your doctor might start you on a hypertensive drug ( amlodipine, telmisartan etc). Please follow the instructions of your doctor completely.
