General description

Chemical structure: macrolide

Application

Rifaximin is a semisynthetic analog of rifamycin with poor absorptivity. It selectively inhibits (E. coli, B subtilis) bacterial DNA-dependent RNA polymerase by a mechanism similar to rifabutin, β subunit binding. It is effective against aerobic and anaerobic Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. It is active against species of Staphylococcus, Streptococcus and Enterococcus. It is less active against species of Enterobacteriaceae. Rifaximin is a non-systemic, gastrointestinal site-specific antibiotic. It has a pyridoimidazole ring, making it non-absorbable. Rifaximin is a pregnane X receptor (PXR) activator.

Rifaximin is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that ameliorates symptomatology in inflammatory/functional gastrointestinal disorders. We assessed changes in gut commensal microbiota (GCM) and Toll-like receptors (TLRs) associated to rifaximin treatment in mice. Adult C57BL/6NCrl mice were treated (7/14 days) with rifaximin (50/150

Rifaximin is a derivative of rifamycin which acts by inhibiting bacterial ribonucleic acid (RNA) synthesis. It is virtually unabsorbed after oral administration; thus it is used primarily to treat local conditions within the gastrointestinal tract. In vitro data indicate rifaximin

Clostridium difficile can cause severe antibiotic-associated colitis. Conventional treatments with metronidazole and vancomycin improve symptoms, but after discontinuation of treatment, C. difficile infection (CDI) recurs in a number of patients. Rifaximin is a rifamycin-based non-systemic antibiotic that has effect against

While rifaximin was able to improve symptoms in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in phase III trials, these results are yet to be repeated in phase IV studies. To evaluate the treatment response to rifaximin in IBS patients in

Escherichia coli is implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Rifaximin, a nonabsorbable derivative of rifampin effective against E. coli, improves symptoms in mild-to-moderate IBD. However, rifaximin resistance can develop in a single step in vitro. We examined
