IBFIX 400
Rifaximin Tablets IP 400 mg
Gut-specific antibiotic for targeted GI care
IBFIX™ 400 is a gut-selective, non-absorbed antibiotic formulated with Rifaximin 400 mg. It is designed for the effective treatment of traveler’s diarrhea, hepatic encephalopathy, and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO).
With minimal systemic absorption, IBFIX™ 400 acts locally in the gastrointestinal tract, offering targeted relief with fewer systemic side effects.

How It Works
_pdf%20(47).png)
Rifaximin inhibits bacterial RNA synthesis by binding to the β-subunit of bacterial DNA-dependent RNA polymerase.
It acts directly in the GI tract, delivering antibacterial action where it's needed most — without significant systemic absorption.
