REEFAXIN 400 is a highly specialized, non-systemic antibiotic containing Rifaximin 400 mg. Unlike traditional antibiotics that are absorbed throughout the body, Rifaximin is unique because it acts almost exclusively within the gastrointestinal tract. This targeted action makes REEFAXIN 400 exceptionally effective for treating conditions caused by bacterial overgrowth or pathogens confined to the gut. It is widely prescribed for managing infectious diarrhea (such as Traveller's Diarrhea caused by E. coli) and is a critical component in the treatment of more complex chronic digestive and liver-related disorders.

Localized Action for Minimal Systemic Impact

The core strength of REEFAXIN 400 lies in its gut-selective mechanism. Rifaximin works by inhibiting bacterial RNA synthesis, effectively killing and stopping the growth of harmful bacteria in the intestines. Crucially, less than 1% of the drug is absorbed into the bloodstream. This minimal systemic absorption allows it to concentrate its antibacterial power exactly where it's needed?in the gut?while significantly reducing the risk of widespread side effects often associated with systemic antibiotics. This localized action is key to treating conditions where bacterial imbalance or overgrowth in the digestive tract is the primary cause of symptoms.

Dual Role in Gastrointestinal and Hepatic Management

REEFAXIN 400 has a dual, highly important therapeutic role. In the gastrointestinal tract, it is used to manage Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Diarrhea (IBS-D) by resetting the gut microbiota and reducing abdominal pain and bloating. Additionally, it is vital in the management of Hepatic Encephalopathy (HE), a serious complication of severe liver disease. By reducing the number of ammonia-producing bacteria in the gut, REEFAXIN 400 lowers harmful ammonia levels in the blood, helping to prevent the recurrence of overt HE symptoms like confusion and cognitive decline.
