What Causes Severe Heartburn While On Rabeprazole?
I am on Rabeprazole for Acid Reflux. I just using it in Jan. It works pretty good most of the time but I would get heartburn about 1 a month. Lately I have had heartburn about 4-5 times a week. Have change my diet and it has not help. Previously I was on Aciphex and it worked very well but it is very, very expensive. What could be causing my constant Acid Reflux now.
