Rifaximin dry suspension
Function and Efficacy
Rifaximin is a broad-spectrum intestinal antibiotic. It is a semi-synthetic derivative of rifamycin SV. Like other rifamycin antibiotics, rifaximin inhibits bacterial RNA synthesis by irreversibly binding to the beta-subunit of bacterial DNA-dependent RNA polymerase, and ultimately inhibits bacterial protein synthesis. Since its binding to the enzyme is irreversible, its activity is bactericidal to sensitive bacteria. Studies on the antibacterial activity of rifaximin have shown that this product has the same broad antibacterial spectrum as rifamycin, and has a bactericidal effect on most Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, including aerobic and anaerobic infections. Since rifaximin is not absorbed by the intestine when taken orally, it exerts its antibacterial effect locally by killing intestinal pathogens. Toxicology study: Repeated dose toxicity: Rats were orally administered 25 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg and 100 mg/kg of this product every day for 180 consecutive days. The tolerance was good. Except for the increase in serum cholesterol in female rats in a dose-related manner (which may be the result of the effect on intestinal flora), no other abnormal changes were observed. Genetic toxicity: No genotoxicity was observed in vivo or in vitro.

Indication
Acute and chronic intestinal infections caused by Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, aerobic and anaerobic bacteria; diarrhea syndrome; diarrhea caused by changes in intestinal flora (enterocolitis, antibiotic-induced enterocolitis, traveler's diarrhea); preoperative and postoperative intestinal prophylaxis; hyperammonemia, portal encephalitis, hepatic coma.
Usage and Dosage
Adults: Oral. 0.2g each time, 3-4 times a day. The dosage for children aged 12 and above is the same as that for adults. Children aged 6-12 years: Oral. 0.1-0.2g (1-2 packs) each time, 4 times a day. The dosage and frequency of administration can be adjusted according to the doctor's advice. Unless otherwise prescribed by the doctor, the course of treatment shall not exceed 7 days.
Adverse Reactions
Some patients may experience nausea after taking the drug (usually after the first dose), but the symptoms will subside quickly. Long-term use of large doses may cause urticaria-like skin reactions in a very small number of patients. 1. There are reports of headaches in the central nervous system. 2. Metabolic/endocrine system patients with hepatic encephalopathy may experience weight loss, slight increases in serum potassium and serum sodium concentrations after taking this drug. 3. Common symptoms of the gastrointestinal system are abdominal distension, abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting. The incidence of the above symptoms is less than 1%. 4. Long-term use of large doses on the skin may cause urticaria-like skin reactions in a very small number of patients. 5. There are reports that other drugs may cause edema.
Precautions
It is contraindicated for those who are allergic to this product.
Special Population Medication
Precautions for children: It is recommended that children under 6 years old should not take this drug. Precautions for pregnancy and lactation: 1. Effects of the drug on pregnancy: This drug has no teratogenic effect in animal experiments. However, the safety and effectiveness of the drug for pregnant women are still unclear. Therefore, pregnant women need to weigh the pros and cons before taking the drug. 2. Effects of the drug on lactation: Only a very small amount of this drug is absorbed after oral administration, and the concentration in breast milk is also very low. Lactating women can take this drug with appropriate medical examinations. Precautions for the elderly: It is still unclear.
Drug Interactions
Less than 1% of the oral dose of rifaximin is absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract, so it will not cause drug interactions and lead to systemic problems.
