Molecular mass: 359.443 g/mol  PubChem compound: 9906855

Active ingredient description

Dexrabeprazole belongs to the class of antisecretory compounds, the substituted benzimidazoles, that do not exhibit anticholinergic or H2 histamine antagonist properties, but suppress gastric acid secretion by the specific inhibition of the H+/K+- ATPase enzyme at the secretory surface of the gastric parietal cell. This enzyme system is regarded as the acid (proton) pump, and therefore dexrabeprazole is classified as a gastric proton-pump inhibitor blocking the final step of acid production.
