Overview

Rifagut (Rifaximin) Tablets 550 mg are a broad-spectrum, non-absorbable antibiotic used to treat gastrointestinal infections and conditions such as hepatic encephalopathy, irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea (IBS-D), and traveler’s diarrhea. Rifaximin works locally in the gut by inhibiting bacterial RNA synthesis, helping to reduce harmful gut bacteria without significant systemic absorption.

Key Benefits
  • Effective treatment for hepatic encephalopathy by reducing ammonia-producing gut bacteria
  • Provides relief from IBS-D symptoms like bloating, abdominal discomfort, and diarrhea
  • Useful in preventing recurrence of hepatic encephalopathy episodes
  • Minimal absorption into bloodstream, reducing risk of systemic side effects
  • Well tolerated in long-term use under medical supervision
How to Use

Take Rifagut 550 mg tablets orally with or without food, as directed by your physician. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew the tablet.

Dosage Information
  • For hepatic encephalopathy: Typically, 550 mg twice daily
  • For IBS-D: Usually 550 mg three times daily for 14 days
  • Dosage may vary based on condition and response; always follow your doctor's instructions
Safety Information
  • Not suitable for patients with known hypersensitivity to rifaximin or similar antibiotics
  • Use with caution in patients with severe liver disease
  • Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking other medications
  • Avoid unnecessary use to prevent antibiotic resistance
  • Not effective for infections outside the gastrointestinal tract
Possible Side Effects

Common side effects may include nausea, flatulence, headache, and abdominal pain. Rarely, it may cause allergic reactions, dizziness, or worsening of liver function in hepatic patients. Contact your doctor if you experience persistent symptoms or allergic responses.

Follow the product label and the advice of a qualified healthcare professional for product-specific use and safety questions.
