Rifampin, an antituberculosis agent, is usually administered for nine to 12 months with other antituberculosis drugs or drugs from other classes. A potential for drug interactions often exists because this drug is a potent inducer of drug metabolism. Rifampin causes a proliferation of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum and an increase in the cytochrome P-

To the Editor.— Rifampin is an effective antituberculous drug recently approved by the Food and Drug Administration for general use. Users are warned that Rifampin has been shown to produce liver dysfunction. There have been fatalities associated with jaundice in patients with liver disease or receiving rifampin concomitantly with other hepatotoxic ...

Fleroxacin combined with rifampin
Diagnostic Microbiology and Infectious Disease, 1991We determined the effect of the combination of rifampin and fleroxacin against Enterobacteriaceae and streptococcal species. None of the 65 isolates tested by checkerboard assay demonstrated synergy, 12% of isolates showed an additive effect; 86.7% were indifferent, and only 1 isolate showed antagonism. The mean FIC was 1.2.

Interaction of Rifampin and Chlorpropamide
Chest, 1980A 62-year-old man who had been taking 250 mg of chlorpropamide daily for several years received rifampin concomitantly and had a subsequent increased dosing requirement of chlorpropamide. When rifampin was discontinued several months later, the serum chlorpropamide concentration rose dramatically.

To the Editor.— We would like to point out an important omission in Berman's article "When the Urine is Red" (237:2753, 1977). Rifampin and its metabolites may color urine, feces, saliva, sputum, sweat, and tears a bright red-orange. This can create a great deal of anxiety for both patients and medical personnel unless they are forewarned of this ...

Verapamil-Rifampin Interaction
Drug Intelligence & Clinical Pharmacy, 1985A case of verapamil-rifampin interaction is presented in a patient receiving verapamil for supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) and rifampin for pulmonary tuberculosis. The patient experienced recurrent symptomatic SVT, despite receiving verapamil 480 mg po q6h. Serum verapamil concentrations were determined to be extremely low.

Rifampin and Pseudomembranous Colitis
Clinical Infectious Diseases, 1983Isolates of toxigenic Clostridium difficile, the most frequent cause of antibiotic-associated pseudomembranous colitis, are almost always highly susceptible to rifampin. However, resistant isolates exist and have been associated with colitis in both hamsters and humans given rifampin.

Corneal Penetration of Rifampin
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1977We tested the corneal penetration of rifampin in four vehicles: dimethylsulfoxide, polyethylene glycol, an ocular lubricant, and as rifampin ointment. We measured drug concentrations in the aqueous humor in rabbits after topical instillation of 1 and 2.5% rifampin according to two dosage schedules.

Rifampin-induced hypothyroidism
Journal of Endocrinological Investigation, 2006Three euthyroid patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis developed hypothyroidism after the administration of rifampin. We studied 67 patients with tuberculosis. All of them were treated with rifampin. Of the 67 patients, 42 had negative tests for anti-thyroid antibodies (ATA) and 25 had positive tests for ATA. The diagnosis of Hashimoto's thyroiditis was
