What you will receive

Rifampin Tablets is a generic medicine sold under the name of its active ingredient, Rifampicin, rather than under a brand.

  • You receive a quality generic; the exact manufacturer depends on what is in stock at the dispatching warehouse.
  • It contains the same active ingredient as the brand-name versions, at the same dose, by regulatory standard.
