Patient's question:
The onset of the condition has been about ten years, with symptoms including upper abdominal pain. I have undergone an endoscopy at a regular Grade III-A hospital. The diagnosis was chronic superficial gastritis and duodenitis, and the doctor prescribed Rabeprazole, Motilium, and Weikang pills. Now, I am experiencing relief and would like to ask, can Rabeprazole be taken long-term?Doctor's answer:
The most common adverse reactions are headache, nausea, and vomiting. In addition to many skin manifestations, it is acceptable to take rabeprazole long-term, but if you experience adverse reactions again, you should stop taking the medication immediately. There are many treatments for gastroenteritis, but since the symptoms of patients vary, the treatment methods also differ. Therefore, patients need timely and careful examination and diagnosis to provide symptomatic treatment.
