7. Ranbeforte . drug interactions


Below are some drugs when combined with Ranbeforte drugs can occur drug interactions.
Rabeprazole sodium administration studies in healthy subjects have shown that rabeprazole sodium does not interact clinically with other drugs metabolised by the CYP450 system such as Phenytoin, Warfarin, Diazepam or Theophyllin. Due to its long-lasting and complete inhibition of acid secretion, Rabeprazole sodium may interact with drugs with a pH-dependent absorption. Concomitant administration of rabeprazole sodium resulted in a 33% decrease in ketoconazole concentrations and a 22% increase in digoxin digoxin concentrations. Therefore, patients should be monitored to determine whether a dose adjustment is necessary when these drugs are co-administered. There have been reports of clinical trials showing no interaction of rabeprazole with liquid antacids. Ranbeforte does not interact with food. Studies have shown that the potential for interaction is very low, but the effect on cyclosporin metabolism is similar to that of other proton pump inhibitors.
