Rifaxil 550 Tablet is an intestinal antibiotic that helps treat and manage bacterial infections of the digestive tract. It is minimally absorbed in the bloodstream and acts locally in the intestines, making it highly effective with fewer systemic side effects.

Targets harmful gut bacteria without affecting overall gut health.

🌟 Symptom Relief in IBS-D:

How It Works

Rifaxil 550 Tablet contains Rifaximin, a non-absorbable antibiotic that works by inhibiting bacterial RNA synthesis. It selectively acts in the gastrointestinal tract to eliminate pathogenic bacteria, reducing infection, inflammation, and symptoms related to toxin buildup.
