Rifaxa 200mg Tablet contains Rifaximin 200mg, a broad-spectrum rifamycin-class antibiotic that works locally in the gastrointestinal tract to treat bacterial infections without significant absorption into the bloodstream. It is commonly prescribed for traveler's diarrhea, irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea (IBS-D), hepatic encephalopathy, and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO).
Unlike many systemic antibiotics, Rifaximin primarily acts within the intestines, helping eliminate harmful bacteria while preserving much of the normal gut microbiota.
