Who cannot take rabeprazole
Rabeprazole is not suitable for everyone. To make sure that it's safe for you, tell your doctor if you:
- have ever had an allergic reaction to rabeprazole or any other medicine
- are pregnant, trying to get pregnant or breastfeeding
- are due to have an endoscopy
If you’re going to have an endoscopy, ask your doctor if you should stop taking rabeprazole a few weeks before your procedure. This is because rabeprazole may hide some of the problems that would usually be spotted during an endoscopy.
