Rabeprazole is a proton pump inhibitor with antisecretory properties. In vitro animal experiments have indicated that the inhibition of the proton pump by rabeprazole is partially reversible. Rabeprazole has 2- to 10-fold greater antisecretory activity than omeprazole in vitro. However, it dissociates more readily from H+,K(+)-ATPase than omeprazole, resulting in a shorter duration of action. In comparative clinical trials rabeprazole was significantly more effective than placebo, famotidine or ranitidine and as effective as omeprazole in the treatment of patients with erosive or ulcerative gastro-oesophageal reflux disease or gastric or duodenal ulcers. Healing rates with rabeprazole were independent of Helicobacter pylori status. Rabeprazole in combination with either clarithromycin and metronidazole or clarithromycin and amoxicillin or amoxicillin and metronidazole or clarithromycin for 7 days produced eradication of H. pylori in 100, 95, 90 and 63% of patients. The tolerability profile of rabeprazole 20mg once daily was similar to that of famotidine 20mg twice daily, ranitidine 150mg 4 times daily or omeprazole 20mg once daily in comparative trials. The adverse events reported with once daily administration of rabeprazole 20mg include malaise, nausea, diarrhoea, headache, dizziness and skin eruptions in 0.7 to 2.2% of patients.

Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are drugs which irreversibly inhibit proton pump (H+/K+ ATPase) function and are the most potent gastric acid-suppressing agents in clinical use. There is now a substantial body of evidence showing improved efficacy of PPIs over the histamine H2 receptor antagonists and other drugs in acid-related disorders. Omeprazole 20 mg/day, lansoprazole 30 mg/day, pantoprazole 40 mg/day or rabeprazole 20 mg/day for 2 to 4 weeks are more effective than standard doses of H2-receptor antagonists in healing duodenal and gastric ulcers. Patients with gastric ulcers should receive standard doses of PPIs as for duodenal ulcers but for a longer time period (4 to 8 weeks). There is no conclusive evidence to support the use of a particular PPI over another for either duodenal or gastric ulcer healing. For Helicobacter pylori-positive duodenal ulceration, a combination of a PPI and 2 antibacterials will eradicate H. pylori in over 90% of cases and significantly reduce ulcer recurrence. Patients with H. pylori-positive gastric ulcers should be managed similarly. PPIs also have efficacy advantages over ranitidine and misoprostol and are better tolerated than misoprostol in patients taking nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). In endoscopically proven gastro-oesophageal reflux disease, standard daily doses of the PPIs are more effective than H2-receptor antagonists for healing, and patients should receive a 4 to 8 week course of treatment. For severe reflux, with ulceration and/or stricture formation, a higher dose regimen (omeprazole 40 mg, lansoprazole 60 mg, pantoprazole 80 mg or rabeprazole 40 mg daily) appears to yield better healing rates. There is little evidence that PPIs lead to resolution of Barrett's oesophagus or a reduction of subsequent adenocarcinoma development, but PPIs are indicated in healing of any associated ulceration. In Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, PPIs have become the treatment of choice for the management of gastric acid hypersecretion.

Rabeprazole sodium is a new substituted benzimidazole proton pump inhibitor with several differences compared with existing proton pump inhibitors. In vitro and animal studies have demonstrated that rabeprazole is a more potent inhibitor of H+,K(+)-ATPase and acid secretion than omeprazole, and is a more rapid inhibitor of proton pumps than omeprazole, lansoprazole, or pantoprazole. This probably reflects rabeprazole's faster activation in the parietal cell canaliculus. In human studies, once-daily doses of 5-40 mg of rabeprazole inhibit gastric acid secretion in a dose-dependent fashion. A once-daily dose of 20 mg has consistently achieved profound decreases in 24-h intragastric acidity in single and repeat dosing studies, in healthy volunteers and patients with either peptic ulcer disease or gastro-oesophageal reflux disease. Significantly greater decreases in intragastric acidity are achieved on day 1 of dosing with rabeprazole 20 mg than with omeprazole 20 mg. As with other proton pump inhibitors, rabeprazole has in vitro antibacterial activity against Helicobacter pylori, with greater activity against this organism than either lansoprazole or omeprazole. In addition to inhibiting bacterial urease activity, rabeprazole binds to several molecules on H. pylori. Clinical trials are needed to assess the clinical importance of these findings, as well as to assess whether the potential advantages of rabeprazole result in clinical benefit for patients with acid-related diseases.

Rabeprazole, a newly developed proton pump inhibitor, has been shown to be effective for the treatment of gastric and duodenal ulcers and for gastro-oesophageal reflux disease. It is a rapid and potent inhibitor of gastric H+,K(+)-ATPase, the gastric acid (proton) pump. The maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) and the area under the plasma concentration time curve (AUC) are linearly related to dose, while the time to maximum plasma concentration (tmax) and elimination half-life (t1/2) are dose-independent. Rabeprazole is extensively metabolized in the liver via the cytochrome P450 enzyme system, and its metabolites are excreted primarily in the urine. Rabeprazole does not accumulate with repeated dosing. Its bioavailability is not influenced by the coingestion of either food or antacids. The pharmacokinetic profile of rabeprazole is substantially altered in the elderly and patients with stable compensated chronic cirrhosis; however, these alterations are not associated with clinically significant abnormalities in laboratory parameters or serious adverse events. The influence of severe decompensated liver disease on the pharmacokinetics of rabeprazole has not been assessed. The pharmacokinetic profile of rabeprazole is not significantly altered by renal dysfunction requiring maintenance haemodialysis. These findings suggest that dosage adjustment is not required in these special patient populations. Caution should be exercised, however, in patients with severe liver disease.

The pharmacology, pharmacokinetics, clinical efficacy, adverse effects, and dosage and administration of pantoprazole are reviewed. Pantoprazole is a gastric hydrogen-potassium adenosine triphosphatase (H+/K(+)-ATPase) inhibitor. It shares the same core structure as other currently available proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs). The FDA-labeled indication is the short-term treatment of erosive esophagitis. PPIs act by selectively inhibiting H+/K(+)-ATPase in the secretory canaliculus of the stimulated parietal cell. Understanding the pharmacodynamics of PPIs is more relevant than knowing their pharmacokinetics, since the duration of action depends on the rate of de novo proton-pump regeneration, not the duration of drug circulation in the body. Pantoprazole is well absorbed, undergoes little first-pass metabolism, and has an absolute bioavailability of approximately 77%. Pantoprazole has been evaluated in more than 100 clinical trials involving more than 11,000 patients. It is effective in treating erosive esophagitis and duodenal and gastric ulcers. It is also effective as adjunctive treatment with antimicrobials in patients infected with Helicobacter pylori. Pantoprazole has been shown to control acid production in Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Pantoprazole is well tolerated. The most commonly reported adverse effects are headache, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. The recommended oral dosage for erosive esophagitis is 40 mg once a day for up to eight weeks. The recommended i.v. dose is 40 mg given over 15 minutes once a day in patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease who are unable to take oral medication. Pantoprazole appears to be as safe and effective as other PPIs in acid-related disorders.

Blockade of the gastric acid pump, hydrogen-potassium adenosine triphosphatase (H+,K+-ATPase), by proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) is one of the most effective treatments for gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD). In ideal terms, however, the inhibition of acid secretion should occur rapidly, on the first dose, and remain virtually complete in a dose-dependent manner. Several aspects of PPI biochemistry prevent the achievement of this ideal. PPIs target the final step of acid secretion and, due to the covalent nature of their inhibition of H+,K+-ATPase, cause suppression of acid secretion long after the drug has been eliminated. Their disadvantages stem from their mechanism of action: they require accumulation and activation in active parietal cells and have short plasma half-lives, hence a relatively slow onset of action. An extension of PPI plasma half-lives is an obvious goal, possibly via exploitation of probable differences in the metabolism of the two enantiomers (structural mirror images) present in current PPI formulations: e.g., clinical data on the S-enantiomer of omeprazole (esomeprazole) suggest some improvement in acid control. An alternative is to generate a pro-drug of a PPI; plasma levels of the PPI would thus depend on release of the active metabolite from the pro-drug, again extending drug half-life. Another area of active investigation is the development of acid-pump antagonists to inhibit acid secretion at its final step.

Many primary care physicians and the public have long considered GERD to be a nuisance disorder that has a modest negative impact and few long-term complications. Until just recently, both groups also underappreciated the significance of nocturnal heartburn. However, the information presented in this Special Report shows that nocturnal heartburn has a major adverse effect on patients' lives. In fact, most experts in the field of gastroenterology believe that prolonged exposure of the esophagus to the acidic contents of the stomach eventually leads to Barrett's esophagus in certain patients. Over time, Barrett's metaplasia may become dysplastic and then malignant. In addition to the increased risk of these long-term complications, the significant detrimental effects of heartburn on patients' daily activities and quality of life point to the need for more aggressive treatment with more powerful acid suppressants. The efficacy of PPI therapy is dependent on H+/K+ ATPase proton pump kinetics and the AUC of the PPI prescribed. Therefore, administration of a PPI before the first meal of the day is critical, as is careful selection of an agent that will control nocturnal heartburn.

Lansoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor that reduces gastric acid secretion in a dose-dependent manner via inhibition of H+/K+-adenosine triphosphatase in gastric parietal cells. It also exhibits antibacterial activity against Helicobacter pylori in vitro. During almost 10 years of clinical use, lansoprazole has proved effective and well tolerated in a wide range of acid-related disorders, including gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD), duodenal ulcers, gastric ulcers, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug-related ulcers, as well as non-ulcer dyspepsia and acid hypersecretion. It is also used, in combination with antibiotics, for H. pylori eradication. In the above indications, lansoprazole has generally proved to be superior to the histamine H2-receptor antagonists, and is at least as effective as the other currently available proton pump inhibitors. This review aims to evaluate the pharmacology, efficacy, safety and cost-effectiveness of lansoprazole in acid-related disorders, with particular emphasis on its use in GORD and H. pylori eradication regimens.

The more potent and longer-lasting inhibition of gastric acid secretion provided by proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) as compared with histamine-2-receptor antagonists is caused in large part by differences in their mechanism of action. PPIs block histamine-2-, gastrin-, and cholinergic-mediated sources of acid production and inhibit gastric secretion at the final common pathway of the H+/K+ adenosine triphosphatase proton pump. In contrast, histamine-2-receptor antagonists cannot block receptor sites other than those mediated by histamine. It seems that the rapid loss of acid suppression activity by the histamine-2-receptor antagonists may be attributed to tolerance. Such tolerance has not occurred in patients receiving PPIs because these agents are irreversible inhibitors of the H+/K+ adenosine triphosphatase proton pump. For these reasons, patients who have acid-related disorders that require high levels of acid suppression do not respond well to intravenous histamine-2-receptor antagonists and would be excellent candidates for intravenous PPI therapy. Candidates for intravenous PPIs also include patients who cannot receive oral PPIs and those who may need the higher acid suppression therapy provided by the intravenous rather than the oral route. Clinical studies have demonstrated the efficacy of intravenous pantoprazole in maintaining adequate control of gastric acid output during the switch from oral to intravenous therapy in patients with severe gastroesophageal reflux disease or the Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Intragastric administration of solutions prepared from oral PPIs has been used as an alternative to the intravenous route in critical care settings. However, decreased bioavailability may limit the value of intragastric delivery of PPIs because of the high frequency of gastric emptying problems in critically ill patients.

The field of acid suppression has been advanced by therapeutics of increasing specificity for inhibiting gastric acid secretion. Particularly important are proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), which inhibit the activity of the gastric acid pump (H+,K(+)-adenosine triphosphatase), the final common step in gastric acid production. Histamine2-receptor antagonists, which act at an early stage of the acid secretion pathway, are less effective and are subject to intolerance. The PPIs are weak bases that undergo accumulation in the acidic space of the secreting parietal cell and are converted in acid to the active thiophilic form, which then forms disulfide bonds with key cysteines of the gastric acid pump. Pantoprazole differs from other PPIs in terms of its reaction with cysteine 822 in the pump and with cysteine 813, a common binding site for all PPIs. Both cysteines are in the sixth transmembrane segment, which is part of the ion transport pathway. This selective binding may have an impact on the dwell time of pantoprazole versus other PPIs because it is inaccessible to reducing agents, in contrast to cysteine 813. Pantoprazole is also very stable (has a slow rate of activation) at neutral pH values compared with other PPIs and has a relatively robust plasma concentration-time curve. These agents are important in the management of duodenal ulcers, nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug-induced ulcers, gastroesophageal reflux disease, and dyspepsia, but basic pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic differences among them may affect clinical utility.
