JMM profile: rifampicin: a broad-spectrum antibiotic

5 Aug 2022

Abstract excerpt

Rifampicin (also known as rifampin) inhibits RNA synthesis, and is used to treat tuberculosis, leprosy, staphylococcal infections and legionnaires’ disease. It can also protect at-risk populations from Haemophilus influenzae type b and Neisseria meningitidis . It is a polyketide antibiotic and is on the World Health Organization (WHO) list of essential medicines due to its critical importance to human medicine....
