It is primarily used to treat traveler’s diarrhea caused by non-invasive strains of Escherichia coli, as well as to prevent recurrence of hepatic encephalopathy and manage symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Diarrhea (IBS-D). Since Rifaximin is minimally absorbed into the bloodstream, Amrif 400 is effective in targeting gut-specific infections with fewer systemic side effects.
