What is Racifree?

Dr. Yogesh Kumar MBBS , General Physician

Racifree is a brand name for rabeprazole. It belongs to a class of medications known as proton pump inhibitors. It is available in the form of a tablet, capsule, and injection. Racifree is used to alleviate the symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disorder (GERD).
