Aximin Tablet 200 mg contains Rifaximin, a gut-selective, broad-spectrum antibiotic primarily used to treat bacterial infections within the gastrointestinal tract. Due to its minimal absorption into the bloodstream, rifaximin works locally in the intestines, making it highly effective with a low risk of systemic side effects. Aximin Tablet 200 mg is commonly prescribed for the management of infectious and functional bowel disorders.

Indications

Aximin Tablet 200 mg is indicated for:

• Traveler’s diarrhea caused by non-invasive strains of Escherichia coli

• Acute infectious diarrhea of bacterial origin

• Management of intestinal bacterial overgrowth, as advised by a physician

• Adjunct therapy in gastrointestinal conditions associated with altered gut flora

Pharmacology

Rifaximin exerts its antibacterial effect by binding to the beta-subunit of bacterial DNA-dependent RNA polymerase, thereby inhibiting RNA synthesis and bacterial growth. Its unique property of poor systemic absorption allows high concentrations of the drug to remain within the intestinal lumen, where it directly targets pathogenic bacteria.

By reducing harmful bacterial populations, Aximin Tablet helps restore intestinal microbial balance, leading to improvement in symptoms such as diarrhea, bloating, abdominal pain, and flatulence. The localized action also minimizes disruption of beneficial gut bacteria and lowers the risk of systemic adverse effects.
