R-cin is indicated as a treatment for tuberculosis. Each capsule contains 300 mg of Rifampicin, a medicine that belongs to a group of medicines known as antibacterial agents. R-cin capsules are used alongside other medications. It can also be used to stop the infection from developing in the following conditions:
— Meningitis (brain and spinal cord infections)
— Haemophilus influenza (flu)
Rifampicin, as an antibacterial agent, treats only bacterial infections; they are ineffective in treating viral infections such as the common old. However, you may feel better after taking a few doses for some days. It should be used exactly as directed. Misuse or overuse can cause the growth of bacteria that Rifampicin will not kill. The condition is referred to as resistance. R cin works by destroying the bacteria that is responsible for causing an infection.
R cin should not be used in patients with jaundice and a history of hypersensitivity to this medication or any of its active ingredients. It is contraindicated when given currently with the combination of ritonavir/saquinavir. There is an increased risk of premature delivery in which the liver is not yet capable of functioning fully. The product passes into the breast milk and should not be used during lactation. R cin has been shown to cause a liver problem. Fatalities have been associated with jaundice in patients with liver disorders or receiving Rifampicin concomitantly with other hepatoxic agents.
To help avoid side effects and proper medication use, speak to your doctor before you take R-in capsules. Let your doctor know about any health conditions or problems you may have, including a kidney problem or porphyria (a genetic disorder that causes symptoms affecting the skin or nervous system). You should also inform him if you use a hormone birth control pill.
You may notice discolouration (orange, red, brown, yellow) in your urine, phlegm, tears, saliva, or teeth. This is quite common, and you need not worry. However, the discolouration may permanently stain soft contact lenses. The discolouration in tears may last for some time after you have stopped taking Rifampicin. Permanent tooth discolouration may occur. Talk to your doctor if you get serious side effects. Serious side effects of the medicine include:
Sudden or severe side effects include:
— Swelling of the legs
— Sudden severe headache
— Confusion, sleepiness, cold, clammy skin, shallow breathing, a racing heartbeat (signs of shock).
Follow your doctor’s advice about how to take R-cin, when, and for how long. R-cin is an antibiotic used to prevent and treat tuberculosis and other infections. The antibiotic is effective only in treating bacterial infections. It will not relieve viral infections such as the common cold and flu. Using an antibiotic medication when it is unnecessary can reduce its effectiveness for future infections. This antibiotic is best taken on an empty stomach with a glass full of water an hour before or two hours after meals or as instructed by your doctor. If you have nausea, do not take antacids; wait for at least an hour after taking this medication.
