Rifakem 200 Tablet

Product Introduction

Rifakem 200 Tablet is an antibiotic used for the treatment of infectious diarrhea. It works by destroying harmful bacteria in the intestines and preventing their growth, thereby reducing infection and helping to restore normal bowel movements. This medicine may be prescribed alone or along with other medications. It can be taken with or without food but should be taken at the same time each day to maintain consistent levels in the body. Use it strictly as advised by your doctor and complete the full course, even if you feel better, to avoid recurrence or resistance. Some people may experience side effects such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort, constipation, headache, flatulence, or fever. These are generally mild and temporary, resolving as the body adapts to the treatment. A harmless side effect that may occur is reddish discoloration of urine, which should not cause concern. If side effects persist or worsen, seek medical advice.
