FAQs:
1. How is Ellrab-20 Injection reconstituted and given?
It is reconstituted with 5–10ml of normal saline or 5% dextrose and given by a nurse or doctor as a slow intravenous injection over 2–5 minutes.
2. Why is IV rabeprazole given instead of oral tablets?
IV route is used when patients cannot take oral medications (NPO, vomiting, post-surgery) or need rapid, 100% reliable acid suppression.
3. How is rabeprazole different from pantoprazole?
Rabeprazole has a faster onset of action and achieves more complete acid suppression, especially in the first 24 hours.
4. What are common side effects?
Injection site pain, headache, nausea, diarrhea, dizziness, or asymptomatic liver enzyme elevation – usually mild and temporary.
