Hi,

ACIPHEX® is indicated for short-term treatment in the healing and symptomatic relief of erosive or ulcerative gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Side effects may include any of the following :  jaundice; rhabdomyolysis; disorientation and delirium; anaphylaxis; severe dermatologic reactions, interstitial pneumonia; interstitial nephritis; and TSH elevations. There are no known effect on yeast infections.  

Yeast infection may be due to medications such as steroids or birth control pills. Take care and regards.
