What is Xifaxan (Rifaximin)?
Xifaxan (generic name: Rifaximin) is an antibacterial medication that works by blocking a step in the transition of bacterial DNA to RNA. Rifaximin inhibits protein synthesis, which results in the blocking of bacterial growth.
Xifaxan indications include treatment of travelers’ diarrhea due to non-invasive strains of Escherichia coli among adults and children 12 years of age and older.
Aside from this, patients are prescribed with Xifaxan for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). Physicians also prescribe Xifaxan for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
This prescription medication has been shown to improve survival among patients with liver cirrhosis. Xifaxan medication can reduce the risk of overt hepatic encephalopathy.
How to Use Xifaxan (Rifaximin)
This oral tablet is usually taken two to three times a day, depending on the medical condition being treated. This medication has a half-life of 5.6 to 6 hours and can stay in the system for 24 hours.
Do not change your Xifaxan dosage or stop taking it abruptly, even when you feel better, to avoid worsening conditions or recurrence of infection. Although it can relieve symptoms in a few days, this is typically prescribed for two weeks, up to a few months. For traveler’s diarrhea, this medication is prescribed for only three days until it clears the gut.
Take this medication by mouth. You may take it with or without a meal, depending on the instructions from your physician. Swallow the tablet whole. Do not crush it or cut it in half.
