Hello,
Thank you for your query at DoctorSpring.com
I understand your concern.
It depends on the number of tablets you consumed. How many thyroid tablets did you consume?
Did you take one dose of Razel ( Rosuvastatin )?
You can take Propranolol to overcome effects of excess thyroxine which will subside in about 1-2weeks. Omit thyroxine for as many number of days as the number of tablets you took. Rabeprazole overdose may only have helped you by reducing thyroxine absorption.

Please feel free to discuss further,
Regards.
