    Suspension preparation

    Granules for the preparation of oral suspension are in a hermetically sealed vial. The bottle must be opened, add water to the mark and shake well. Add more water until the slurry reaches the indicated level.
    The concentration of rifaximin in the finished suspension is 100 mg per 5 ml. For measuring 5; 10 or 15 ml of suspension is added to the measuring cup.
    The suspension is stable for 7 days at room temperature. Shake the vial well before taking the preparation.

    Contraindications

    Hypersensitivity to rifaximin, or to other rifamycins, or to any of the components of the preparation.

    Side effects

    Analysis of safety data showed that the risk of side effects when using alpha normix is ​​very low. these events are mainly limited to gastrointestinal disturbances (nausea, dyspepsia, vomiting, abdominal pain and cramps), are mild to moderate, and usually resolve spontaneously without the need to change the dose or stop therapy.
    The preparation is practically not absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract, which eliminates the risk of systemic side effects.
    In rare cases, skin reactions such as urticaria may occur, which are probably associated with individual intolerance to the treatment. The risk of side effects is 0.7–2% of all cases of preparation use. Post-marketing surveillance data support the above risk assessment and the nature of the observed events.

    special instructions

    During long-term treatment with high doses or with damage to the intestinal mucosa, absorption of a small amount of the preparation (1%) is possible, which can cause staining of the urine in a reddish color. this is due to the active substance, which, like most antibiotics of this series (rifamycins), has a red-orange color.
    Use during pregnancy and lactation. Rifaximin did not cause teratogenic effects in rats and rabbits. There are no adequate data and well-controlled studies in pregnant women.
    Since the study of toxicity on reproductive function in animals does not allow to evaluate the possibility of a toxic effect in humans, during pregnancy, the preparation can be taken only in case of urgent need and under the direct supervision of a physician.
    The penetration of rifaximin into breast milk has not been studied, but it is presumably insignificant due to very low absorption into the systemic circulation. Therefore, the use of Alfa Normix by women who are breastfeeding is allowed with appropriate medical supervision.
    The ability to influence the reaction rate when driving vehicles or operating other mechanisms. Not installed.
