General Actions (Not specific medical benefits for the user)
| Core Action | Mechanism |
| Prevents HE Recurrence | Rifaximin reduces the population of intestinal bacteria that produce neurotoxins, such as ammonia, which helps lower ammonia levels in the blood, thereby reducing the risk of Hepatic Encephalopathy in liver disease patients. |
| Treats IBS-D Symptoms | By reducing the bacterial load in the small intestine (bacterial overgrowth), it alleviates core symptoms of IBS-D like bloating, abdominal pain, and loose stools/diarrhea. |
| Non-Systemic Activity | Due to its minimal absorption into the bloodstream, Rifaximin acts primarily in the gut, which significantly reduces the risk of systemic antibiotic-related side effects. |
| Broad Spectrum Local Effect | Binds to the beta-subunit of bacterial DNA-dependent RNA polymerase, inhibiting bacterial RNA synthesis and offering a broad-spectrum bactericidal action against gut flora contributing to disease. |
