rabeprazole oral and budesonide inhl
rabeprazole oral decreases effects of budesonide inhl by reducing stomach acidity. This interaction may occur when both drugs are taken by mouth. Drugs that reduce stomach acidity may reduce the absorption of enteric-coated budesonide.
rabeprazole oral and budesonide inhl
rabeprazole oral decreases effects of budesonide inhl by increasing gastric pH. Applies only to oral form of both agents. Enteric-coated budesonide dissolves at pH >5.5. Also, dissolution of extended-release budesonide tablets is pH dependent. Coadministration with drugs that increase gastric pH may cause these budesonide products to prematurely dissolve, and possibly affect release properties and absorption of the drug in the duodenum.
