How to take Galrab?

Dr. Kumawat Vijay Kumar MBBS , General Physician

Galrab is available in tablet, capsule and injection form. It should be taken exactly as prescribed by your doctor. It can be taken with or without food because food does not affect the absorption of the drug. It should be taken the whole and swallowed with water. It should not be chewed, crushed or split. It should be taken at exactly the same time every day so that there is less chance of missing the dose. 

Question almost 5 years ago

Why Galrab is given along with vitamine B 12?

Dr. Sameer Awadhiya MBBS , Pediatrics

This is because a long-term use of Galrab can cause Vitamin B12 deficiency. Stomach acids help in the absorption of Vitamin B 12, and this drug suppresses stomach acid which is required for the absorption of vitamin B12. Hence patients taking [medicine] for a long time have Vitamin B12 deficiency. To replenish Vitamin B12 in your body your doctor prescribes this vitamin along with this medicine.

Dr. Braj Bhushan Ojha BAMS , Gastroenterology, Dermatology, Psychiatry, Ayurveda, Sexology, Diabetology

Rarely Galrab causes stomach cancer. There has been no direct relationship to establish the fact.
