Abstract: Crystalline polymorphous forms of rifaximin (INN), referred to as rifaximin ? and rifaximin ?, and a poorly crystalline form referred to as rifaximin ?, useful in the production of medicaments containing rifaximin for oral and topical use and obtained by means of a crystallization process carried out by hot-dissolving the raw rifaximin in ethyl alcohol and by causing the crystallization of the product by addition of water at a fixed temperature and for a fixed period of time, followed by a drying under controlled conditions until reaching a precise water content in the end product, are the object of the invention.

Abstract: Forms of rifaximin (INN) antibiotic, such as the poorly crystalline form named rifaximin ? are described, along with the production of medicinal preparations containing rifaximin for oral and topical use.

Abstract: The present invention relates to Rifaximin polymorphic forms ?, ? and ?, to their use in medicinal preparations for the oral or topical route and to therapeutic methods using them.

Abstract: Crystalline polymorphous forms of the rifaximin (INN) antibiotic named rifaximin ? and rifaximin ?, and a poorly crystalline form named rifaximin ? have been discovered. These forms are useful in the production of medicinal preparations for oral and topical use and can be obtained by means of a crystallization process carried out by hot-dissolving the raw rifaximin in ethyl alcohol and by causing the crystallization of the product by the addition of water at a determinate temperature and for a determinate period of time. The crystallization is followed by drying carried out under controlled conditions until a specific water content is reached in the end product.

Abstract: The present invention relates to rifaximin polymorphic forms ?, ? and ?, the processes for their preparation and the use thereof in the manufacture of medicinal preparations for the oral or topical route.
