SIBO
Small intestine bacterial overgrowth (SIBO) treatment
The most common cause of SIBO is the reduction of the normal cycle of muscular activity of the small intestine at night. It is during these muscular contractions that the small intestine is stripped clean and by doing so keeping the bacterial population low. treat w/ antibiotic called Xifaxan
Study used rifaximin therapy (1200 mg/day for 10 days)
some patients showed little improvement with rifaximin, as found in the previous study, but experienced clearance of rosacea symptoms and normalization of methane excretion following administration of the antibiotic metronidazole, which is effective at targeting methanogenic intestinal bacteria.[32] This may also explain the improvement in symptoms experienced by some patients when given a reduced carbohydrate diet.[33] Such a diet would restrict the available material necessary for bacterial fermentation and thereby reduce intestinal bacterial populations.
Bacterial overgrowth is usually treated with a course of antibiotics although whether antibiotics should be a first line treatment is a matter of debate. Some experts recommend probiotics as first line therapy with antibiotics being reserved as a second line treatment for more severe cases of SIBO
