Is it allowed to take Rifaximin during lactation?
Is it safe for a nursing mother and a child?

Antibiótico derivado de la rifamicina, no aborbible, utilizado por vía oral para tratar determinadas diarreas y afecciones intestinales. A fecha de última actualización no encontramos datos publicados en relación con la lactancia pero su falta casi absoluta de absorción intestinal (< 1%) y su elevado peso molecular hacen muy improbable su paso a leche. Por otra parte sus posibles efectos secundarios son leves y casi limitados a molestias abdominales.

Was given for IBS diarrhea. Save your time and your money. After researching on here I found out it is only good for Travelers diarrhea which is not my problem. At $800 a prescription I am very disappointed.

I had a colon resection because of cancer. My cecum was remove as well as the valve that keeps the bowel substance of my moving back into my colon. Consequently I have had bacteria in my stomach that could have traveled back into my system? I have had very bad bouts of IBS. Taking a course of this drug seems to take care of the problem. This is the second time in the past five years.The only negative if the price of the drug.

I am being treated for irritable bowel syndrome with this drug. It has been used for IBS for only about 2 years and is working well.
