Hey all,
I am now on Augmentin, Bactrim and Rifampin. I just started the Rifampin yesterday.
Does anyone know of interactions with these???
Also, I noticed the last few days my pee is orange, like orange juice! Is this a Rifampin side effect? I don't see that in my booklet.
Thanks!!!

Hi Richedie,
Yes, Rifampin will turn your pee orange. It is a bit disturbing. Thanks goodness my daughter's LLMD warned us.
So many things interact with Rifampin. I would consult with your pharmacist or check online.
Take Care
