Question 1

My doctor is unfamiliar with Rifaximin and therefore prescribing it. Is there an alternative medication that he might be more familiar with?

Accepted Answer

Unfortunately, there are no suitable replacements for Rifaximin. It is unique in its ability to manage bacterial overgrowth while maintaining a neutral effect on the gut microbiome, unlike most other antibiotics.
