Product Description
Product Name: Xifaxa Tablets 550mg
Product Form: Tablets
Pack Size: 10's
Manufactured By: Brookes Pharma
Used For:
Rifaximin is an antibiotic used to treat bacterial infections in the intestines. It is commonly prescribed for travelers' diarrhea caused by non-invasive strains of Escherichia coli. It is also used for managing hepatic encephalopathy by reducing ammonia-producing gut bacteria and for treating irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea (IBS-D). Unlike many antibiotics, rifaximin acts primarily in the gut with minimal systemic absorption.
Side Effects:
Common side effects include nausea, flatulence, stomach pain, headache, and fatigue. Some individuals may experience diarrhea or constipation. Rare but serious side effects include severe allergic reactions (e.g., rash, swelling, or difficulty breathing) or a worsening of liver disease symptoms in hepatic encephalopathy patients.
Precautions:
Rifaximin should not be used for infections caused by invasive bacteria or for severe diarrhea with blood or fever. Caution is advised in individuals with severe liver dysfunction or a history of antibiotic-resistant infections. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a doctor before use. Patients should inform their healthcare provider of other medications they are taking to prevent potential interactions, particularly with drugs affecting liver enzymes
