Clinical examination with the completion of standard questionnaires, assessment of the quality of life of patients were performed at three visits: before the start of the treatment, after 2 and 4 weeks of therapy. Fibroesophagogastroduodenoscopy was performed in all patients before treatment and in patients with esophagitis after 4 weeks of therapy. All patients received rabeprazole (Razo®) at a dose of 20 mg once a day for the treatment of GERD. The diagnosis of heartburn and sour eructation was carried out according to the recommendations of the Montreal Consensus, the diagnosis of esophagitis was performed based on the Los Angeles classification.Results and discussion. Among patients with NERD, 74.1% of patients responded to Razo® therapy after 2 weeks of treatment, after 4 weeks  the proportion of responders increased to 94.4% (p = 0.008). Healing of erosions after  4 weeks  was observed  in 90.5% of patients with esophagitis. Razo® therapy was accompanied by a pronounced improvement in GERD patients in all parameters of quality of life and patient satisfaction with the results of Razo® treatment.Conclusion.
