Precautions
Aciphex may be associated with an increased risk of Clostridium difficile associated diarrhea, especially in hospitalized patients. This diagnosis should be considered for diarrhea that does not improve.
PPI therapy may be associated with an increased risk for osteoporosis-related fractures of the hip, wrist, or spine. The risk of fracture was increased in patients who received high-dose, defined as multiple daily doses, and long-term PPI therapy (a year or longer). Patients should use the lowest dose and shortest duration of PPI therapy appropriate to the condition being treated
Hypomagnesemia, symptomatic and asymptomatic, has been reported rarely in patients treated with PPIs for at least three months, in most cases after a year of therapy. Serious adverse events include tetany, arrhythmias, and seizures. In most patients, treatment of hypomagnesemia required magnesium replacement and discontinuation of the PPI

Aciphex FAQs
Can I take this with food?
Doses should be taken 30 minutes before a meal
Can I take this if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?
There are not enough studies to determine if Aciphex is safe in pregnant women, therefore it should be used in pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
It is unknown if Aciphex is excreted in breast milk, but caution should be used when Aciphex is used in nursing mothers.
