I have seen studies that used Rifaximin (see review article below) for IBS and SIBO but I have not seen any studies using Rifampicin. The review article concluded that Rifaximin is the only antibiotic with demonstrated sustained benefit beyond therapy cessation in irritable bowel syndrome patients in a placebo-controlled trial. Can you provide a reference about the use of Rifampicin for IBS? I would like to add it to my IBS research database.

Thanks
