Indication
XIFAXAN® (rifaximin) 550 mg tablets are indicated for
reduction in risk of overt hepatic encephalopathy (HE)
recurrence in patients ≥ 18 years of age.
Important Safety Information about XIFAXAN 550 mg
XIFAXAN® (rifaximin) 550 mg tablets are contraindicated
in patients with a hypersensitivity to rifaximin, any of the
rifamycin antimicrobial agents, or any of the components
in XIFAXAN. Hypersensitivity reactions have included
exfoliative dermatitis, angioneurotic edema, and anaphylaxis.
Clostridium difficile-associated diarrhea (CDAD) has
been reported with use of nearly all antibacterial agents,
including XIFAXAN, and may range in severity from mild
diarrhea to fatal colitis. Treatment with antibacterial agents
alters the normal flora of the colon which may lead to
overgrowth of C. difficile. If CDAD is suspected or
confirmed, ongoing antibiotic use not directed against
C. difficile may need to be discontinued.
There is increased systemic exposure in patients with more
severe hepatic dysfunction. The clinical trials were limited
to patients with MELD scores < 25. Therefore, caution
should be exercised when administering XIFAXAN to
patients with severe hepatic impairment (Child-Pugh C).
Concomitant administration of drugs that are
P-glycoprotein (P-gp) inhibitors with XIFAXAN can
substantially increase the systemic exposure to XIFAXAN.
Caution should be exercised when concomitant use of
XIFAXAN and a P-gp inhibitor such as cyclosporine is
needed. In patients with hepatic impairment, a potential
additive effect of reduced metabolism and concomitant
P-gp inhibitors may further increase the systemic exposure
to XIFAXAN.
Based on animal data, XIFAXAN may cause fetal harm.
Discontinue in nursing mothers after taking into account
the importance of the drug to the mother.
The most common adverse reactions occurring in ≥ 10%
of patients and at a higher incidence than placebo in
the clinical study were peripheral edema (15%),
nausea (14%), dizziness (13%), fatigue (12%), and
ascites (11%).
Xifaxan 550 mg is licensed by Alfa Wassermann S.p.A.
to Salix Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
Please see complete Prescribing Information for
XIFAXAN at Salix booth #500.
