Travel diarrhoea treatment XIFAXANTA
Service Description
Travellers diarrhoea: Xifaxanta (rifaximin) is an intestinal antibiotic used to treat certain bacterial infections in the gut. Here’s why it might be prescribed: • Traveler’s Diarrhea – It helps treat diarrhoea caused by Escherichia coli (E. coli), often contracted from contaminated food or water while traveling. • Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Diarrhea (IBS-D) – It can help manage symptoms in adults whose primary IBS symptom is diarrhea. • Hepatic Encephalopathy – Used to lower the risk of brain function decline in adults with liver failure. Unlike many antibiotics, Xifaxanta works only in the intestines and is not absorbed into the bloodstream, reducing the risk of systemic side effects. It also has the added benefit of avoiding side effects of nausea and constipation. However, it does not treat all forms of traveler’s diarrhoea, and it’s important to consult a doctor before use.
