A member asked:

Stomach pain and acidity after stopping rabeprazole sodium is it due to stopping it or else?currently taking leflunomide & sulfasalazine for arthritis

A doctor has provided 1 answer

You benefited...: ---symptomatically from a reduction in stomach acid while taking rabeprazole. Now that your acid production has resumed off the drug, you've again noticed acid-related symptoms. Every drug has advantages and disadvantages to long term use--discuss with your provider whether restarting an acid blocker in your case has more "pro" than "con.".
