Rifaxilan® is a derivative of the antibiotic rifamycin with minimal gastrointestinal absorption and broad-spectrum antibacterial activity covering both gram-positive and gram-negative organisms with limited cross-resistance. Beyond its antibacterial activity, such as alteration of virulence, prevention of gut mucosa! adherence and bacterial translocation, rifaximin exerts some anti-inflammatory effects with only a minimal effect on the overall composition of the gut microbiota. All these properties make Rifaximin an excellent candidate for treating various gastrointestinal diseases.
