Documented Uses

• Use (kg; approx.) in Germany (2009): >25
• Consumption (g per capita; approx.) in Germany (2009): 0.000305
• Rifaximin has multiple indications by the FDA: for the treatment of patients (≥12 years of age) with traveller's diarrhea caused by noninvasive strains of Escherichia coli; for the reduction of overt hepatic encephalopathy recurrence in patients ≥18 years of age; and in May 2015 it was approved for irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea (IBS-D) treatment in adult men and women.
• Rifaximin is a nonabsorbable oral antibiotic. Rifaximin has a broad spectrum of activity against both gram-negative and gram-positive anaerobic and aerobic bacteria. This antibiotic is used primarily for gastrointestinal and liver diseases since it is specific to the gastroenterology tract due to its nonabsorbable profile. Rifaximin was first approved in the United States in 2004 but has been in use since 1987, when it first received approval in Italy.
• Rifaximin is a nonabsorbable antibiotic that is used as treatment and prevention of travelers’ diarrhea and, in higher doses, for prevention of hepatic encephalopathy in patients with advanced liver disease and to treat diarrhea in patients with irritable bowel syndrome. Rifaximin has minimal oral absorption and has not been implicated in causing liver test abnormalities or clinically apparent liver injury.
• Breast Feeding; Lactation; Milk, Human; Anti-Infective Agents; Gastrointestinal Agents; Rifamycins
