Overview | Rifaximin (Rifaximin) is a rifamycin derivative developed by the Italian Alpha Company, in 1987, it was marketed in Italy as an anti-infectious diarrhea drug, and was still widely used in foreign countries. In 2004, it was approved by SFDA and has been used in clinical practice in China. It is a semi-synthetic antibacterial agent of Rifamycin, with wide antibacterial spectrum and strong antibacterial effect, which can form a high blood concentration in the intestinal tract, gram-negative aerobic bacteria in the genus Salmonella, Shigella and Escherichia coli, Yersinia enterocolitica, gram-positive anaerobic bacteria in the genus Bacteroides and so on have a high degree of antibacterial activity. Its mechanism of action is to inhibit bacterial polymerase, block the transcription process of RNA, and then inhibit the synthesis of bacterial protein, thereby reducing the production of ammonia, its antibacterial effect characteristics: 1) strong antibacterial, broad antibacterial spectrum, the majority of gram-positive bacteria and gram-negative bacteria (including aerobic bacteria and anaerobic bacteria) has a bactericidal effect, and the effect on Gram-positive bacteria is stronger than gram-negative bacteria; 2) it is not absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract, and has a very high concentration in the intestinal tract. It can quickly play an antibacterial role in the local area by killing the pathogens in the intestinal tract, and does not need to cooperate with the use of intestinal spasmolytic drugs and adsorbed drugs. as an intestinal antibiotic, rifaximin is not easily absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract after oral administration, and only reaches a high drug concentration in the intestinal tract, and its blood concentration can be almost ignored, the risk of systemic side effects is very low. Rifaximin has no significant difference in clinical efficacy compared with aminoglycoside antibiotics and other commonly used drugs for intestinal bacterial infection, but the side effects are significantly reduced. Rifaximin is clinically used for acute and chronic intestinal infection, Diarrhea, enterocolitis, etc., and as an adjuvant therapeutic drug for high blood ammonia and an intestinal preventive drug before or after surgery, and has a broad market prospect. at present, there are 16 rifaximin raw materials, 12 tablets, 5 capsules, 1 Soft Capsule and 3 suspensions produced in China. In 2004, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved an application for the marketing of rifaximin (Xifaxan) in the US, the indication is the treatment of patients over 12 years of age with non-invasive E. Coli-induced traveler Diarrhea (TD for short). |
Background | rifaximin is effective in the treatment of bacterial intestinal infection, hepatic encephalopathy, inflammatory bowel disease and other gastrointestinal diseases. Acute bacterial intestinal infection is a common clinical digestive system disease, if not timely and effective treatment, mild can cause irritable bowel syndrome, severe can cause dehydration, electrolyte disorders, acidosis and even Shock and other complications, the quality of life has been seriously affected. At present, antibiotic therapy is the main clinical treatment. Rifaximin (Rifaximin) is an oral non-absorption, local role in the intestinal tract of antibiotics, a variety of gram-positive bacteria, gram-negative aerobic bacteria and anaerobic bacteria have a high degree of antibacterial activity, and levofloxacin, there was no significant difference in the efficacy of rifaximin against bacterial intestinal infections compared with ciprofloxacin and other antibiotics. The effective rates of rifaximin and ciprofloxacin in the treatment of bacterial intestinal infections were 97.14% and 97.19%, respectively. The cure rate, effective rate, bacterial clearance rate and incidence of adverse reactions in the treatment of acute bacterial intestinal infections were equivalent to those of ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin, it is a safe and effective antibacterial drug for the clinical treatment of acute bacterial intestinal infection. inflammatory bowel disease mainly includes Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC). Rifaximin is an oral non-gastrointestinal absorbed antibiotic, which can be used for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease, the remission rate of CD and UC was 69% and 76% respectively. In addition, rifaximin was approved by the U. S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2005 for the treatment of hepatic encephalopathy. Intestinal ammonia-producing bacteria is the main source of intestinal ammonia, and the bactericidal effect of the antibiotic rifaximin can reduce ammonia production, with good efficacy, safety and tolerance, and can reduce the rate of re-hospitalization, hospitalization time and hospital costs, while improving the quality of life of patients. |
trait | is orange powder, soluble in ethanol, chloroform and toluene, insoluble in water |
pharmacological action | is a broad-spectrum intestinal antibiotic, which is a semi-synthetic derivative of rifamycin SV. The mechanism of action is the same as that of other rifamycins. By irreversibly binding to the bacterial DNA-dependent RNA polymerase β subunit, bacterial RNA synthesis is inhibited, and bacterial protein synthesis is finally inhibited to exert a bactericidal effect. The antibacterial spectrum is extensive, and it has high antibacterial activity against most Gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria including aerobic bacteria and anaerobic bacteria. This product is almost not absorbed by oral administration, and plays a role by killing pathogenic bacteria locally in the intestinal tract. |
synthetic route | with rifamycin S and 2-amino-4-methylpyridine as raw materials, dichloromethane as solvent, rifaximin was synthesized with iodine as catalyst and sodium sulfite as reducing agent, in which the molar ratio of rifamycin S to catalyst iodine was 3:1, the molar ratio of 2-amino-4-methylpyridine to rifamycin S was 2.5: 1, the reaction temperature was 30 ° C., and the reaction time was 24 h. Under the optimized conditions, the yield of the product reached 85.2%, and the specific reaction process was as follows: |
pharmacokinetics | , local and gastrointestinal administration is almost not absorbed (absorption rate is less than 1%), after oral administration in the intestine concentration is very high, mainly by fecal excretion. |
indications | for intestinal infections caused by rifaximin-sensitive pathogens, including acute and chronic intestinal infections, Diarrhea syndrome, summer Diarrhea, travelers Diarrhea and enterocolitis. It is also used in the adjuvant treatment of hyperammonemia (hepatic encephalopathy). |
specification | tablet: 200mg; Capsule: 200mg; Suspension: 5ml: 100mg; Dry suspension: 200mg; Cream: 5% |
dosage | for the treatment of intestinal infections caused by sensitive bacteria, including acute and chronic intestinal infections, Diarrhea syndrome, summer Diarrhea, traveler Diarrhea and enterocolitis, etc., oral, adult Once 200mg,tid ~ qid(6~12 years old children, once 100~200mg,qid;12 years old and older doses with adults, the same below). Prevention of gastrointestinal perioperative infectious complications, oral, adults once 400mg,bid (children aged 6-12 years, once 200~400mg,bid). for the adjuvant treatment of hyperammonemia, oral, adults once 400mg,tid(6~12 years old children, once 200 ~ 300mg,tid). |
adverse reactions | the drug had mild adverse reactions and was well tolerated by local and gastrointestinal administration. Central nervous system: there are Head Pain reports. Metabolism/endocrine system: patients with hepatic encephalopathy after taking the drug may have weight loss, serum potassium and serum sodium concentration slightly increased. Gastrointestinal System: common symptoms were Nausea, Vomit, abdominal distension and Abdominal Pain, the incidence was less than 1%. Nausea usually appears after the first dose, but may resolve rapidly. Skin: a large dose of long-term medication, a very small number of patients with urticaria-like skin reactions. Other: useful after drug may cause foot edema report. |
Drug interactions | less than 1% of the oral dose of rifaximin is absorbed via the gastrointestinal tract, therefore Rifaximin does not cause systemic problems due to drug interactions. |
