    Product Description

    Rabeprazole sulfide is an active metabolite of the proton pump inhibitor rabeprazole (Item No. 14939).1 It inhibits the motility of H. pylori (IC50 = 0.25 µg/ml).2 Rabeprazole sulfide is cytotoxic to HepG2 liver and PANC-1 pancreatic cancer cells (IC50s = 0.08 and 0.17 µM, respectively).3 It is also a potential impurity in commercial preparations of rabeprazole and an acid and neutral hydrolytic degradation product of rabeprazole.4,3
