My acidity has gotten really bad in this pregnancy, cant sleep some nights. Someone suggested rabeprazole but i dont want to take anything without knowing. Did ur gynac allow it during pregnancy? im 5 months.
Please dont decide this on your own. Some acidity meds are given in pregnancy but only when the doctor chooses them for your situation. Show your gynac the name and let them say yes or no. Safer that way.
This one is sometimes prescribed for severe acidity but it's the doctor's call, not something to self continue. If you're suffering with reflux just tell your gynac, they'll either okay it or switch you to what they prefer.
Acidity in pregnancy is honestly brutal, I feel you. But my doctor was particular about which acidity medicine I took. So I'd really say ask your gynac about rabeprazole specifically before you continue it.
I wouldnt take any acidity tablet without checking. For mild acidity I managed with small frequent meals and avoiding spicy stuff. For the medicine part, ask your doctor, dont guess yaar.
Safety here depends on your trimester and overall health, so it's genuinely a question for your doctor. Dont go by what was safe for someone else. A quick call to your gynac will settle it.
