Xifaxan Information:
Xifaxan (generic name: Rifaximin) is used for the treatment of diarrhea in travellers that is caused by the E.coli bacteria. Rifaximin is a type of semi-synthetic (man-made) antibiotic. It works by fighting the E.coli bacterial infection in the intestines. The E.coli bacteria is usually caused by the eating of undercooked or cross contaminated food of drinks, especially meats and eggs, and sometimes other dairy products although it can be ingested through other foods and drinks in addition. Xifaxan is approved by the Food and Drugs Association in the USA for the treatment of E.coli-induced diarrhea as noted above. Many antibiotics pass through the gastrointestinal tracts and into the blood circulation; however this is not true of Xifaxan which does not pass further than the gastrointestinal tract. Xifaxan is also sometimes indicated for the relief of chronic symptoms of bloating and flatulence caused by irritable bowel syndrome. Across Europe, Rifaxamin is also sold under the names Spriaxin, Zaxine, Normix, Rifacol and Colidur. Clinical trials on travellers who visited Mexico on Xifaxan have shown that the active ingredient, Rifaximin, is highly effective in preventing and treating traveller’s diarrhea. There are few side effects, and the risk of resistance to antibiotics is low.
Xifaxan Side Effects:As with any drug, there may be side effects from taking Xifaxan including bloating, gas stomach pain, urgent need to empty the bowels, feeling of constipation or as though the bowels are not empty, nausea, vomiting, constipation, headache, dizziness, tired feeling and swelling of the hands, feet or torso. More serious side effects may include an allergic reaction which may be noticeable from swelling of the face, lips or mouth; difficulty breathing, fever, diarrhea or rashes. If you experience any side effects you must seek medical attention immediately for safety.
Xifaxan Directions: You should follow the instructions of the doctor who prescribed Xifaxan to you. Directions and dosage information can also be found on the pack or leaflet inside the pack. Xifaxan comes in tablet form. You should swallow Xifaxan whole with a glass of water. Do not crush, break or chew tablets as this may result in too much of the drug being released at one time. As with most antibiotics, ensure that you take the full course of antibiotics that were prescribed to you. Xifaxan should be stored at room temperature away from direct sunlight and heat.
Xifaxan Precautions: If you are allergic to any of the ingredients of Xifaxan, you should avoid taking it and inform your doctor. You must consult your doctor if you have any pre-existing medical conditions including liver disease, kidney disease, dairrhea with a fever and watery or bloody diarrhea. You must consult your doctor if you are taking any other medications as they may interact with Xifaxan, including rifampin, rifabutin or any other drugs or supplements. It is important that you inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to conceive or breastfeeding as Xifaxan may cause harm to unborn and new born babies. Beware that many antibiotics cause the contraceptive pill to become inactive, and so other forms of contraception should be used such as condoms.
