Pharmacological action

Rifampiin is a broad-spectrum antibiotic. It is active against mycobacterium tuberculosis and leprosy, acts on gram-positive (especially staphylococci) and gram-negative (meningococci, gonococci) cocci, less active against gram-negative bacteria.

Rifampiin is well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. The maximum concentration in the blood is reached after 2-2 ‘/ 2 hours after ingestion.

With intravenous drip, the maximum concentration of rifampicin is observed towards the end of the infusion (infusion). At a therapeutic level, the concentration of the drug when administered orally and intravenously is maintained for 8-12 hours, for highly sensitive pathogens for 24 hours. Rifampicin penetrates well into tissues and body fluids and is found in therapeutic concentrations in pleural exudate (accumulating between the membranes, surrounding the lungs, protein-rich fluid), sputum contained in caverns (cavities in the lungs resulting from tissue necrosis), bone tissue. The highest concentration of the drug is created in the tissues of the liver and kidneys. It is excreted from the body with bile and urine.

Rifampicin resistance is developing rapidly. Cross-resistance with other antibiotics is not observed (with the exception of rifamiin).

Special instructions

Use with caution in case of liver disease, exhaustion. In the treatment of non-tuberculosis infections, the development of resistance of microorganisms is possible, this process can be prevented if rifampicin is combined with other chemotherapeutic agents. With rifampicin daily, its tolerance is better than with intermittent treatment. If it is necessary to resume treatment with rifampicin after a break, then you should start with a dose of 75 mg / day, gradually increasing it by 75 mg / day until the desired dose is reached. In this case, renal function should be monitored, possibly an additional appointment of GCS.

With prolonged use of rifampicin, a systematic monitoring of the blood picture and liver function is indicated, a test with a load of bromosulfalein cannot be used, since rifampicin competitively inhibits its excretion.
