Tuberculosis disease [active tuberculosis]

Tuberculosis disease [active tuberculosis]:

Note: Always administer in combination with other antitubercular drugs (Ref).

Drug-susceptible:

Initial intensive phase: Oral, IV: 10 mg/kg (maximum dose: 600 mg) once daily (or 5 days per week by directly observed therapy [DOT]) as part of a standard 4-drug regimen for 2 months (Ref).

Dosage adjustment for concomitant therapy: Significant drug interactions exist, requiring dose/frequency adjustment or avoidance. Consult drug interactions database for more information.

Dosing: Kidney Impairment: Adult

The renal dosing recommendations are based upon the best available evidence and clinical expertise. Senior Editorial Team: Bruce Mueller, PharmD, FCCP, FASN, FNKF; Jason A. Roberts, PhD, BPharm (Hons), B App Sc, FSHP, FISAC; Michael Heung, MD, MS.

Note: At rifampin doses ≤600 mg/day, reduced clearance by the kidney is compensated for by biliary excretion. However, at rifampin doses ≥900 mg/day, the hepatic excretory pathway is saturated and higher concentrations of rifampin are noted in patients with reduced kidney function (Ref).

Altered kidney function:

CrCl >15 mL/minute: No dosage adjustment necessary (Ref).

CrCl <15 mL/minute: No dosage adjustment necessary for usual indication-specific doses ≤600 mg/day. For usual indication-specific doses ≥900 mg/day, consider limiting dose to 600 mg/day or monitoring more closely for adverse effects (Ref) except when used for meningococcal chemoprophylaxis (no adjustment necessary due to short duration of therapy) (Ref).

Hemodialysis, intermittent (thrice weekly): Not significantly dialyzable (Ref); no dosage adjustment necessary for usual indication-specific doses ≤600 mg/day. For usual indication-specific doses ≥900 mg/day, consider limiting dose to 600 mg/day or monitoring more closely for adverse effects (Ref) except when used for meningococcal chemoprophylaxis (no adjustment necessary due to short duration of therapy) (Ref).

Peritoneal dialysis: Not significantly dialyzable (Ref); no dosage adjustment necessary for usual indication-specific doses ≤600 mg/day. For usual indication-specific doses ≥900 mg/day, consider limiting dose to 600 mg/day or monitoring more closely for adverse effects (Ref) except when used for meningococcal chemoprophylaxis (no adjustment necessary due to short duration of therapy) (Ref).

CRRT: No dosage adjustment necessary (Ref).

Alternative dosing intervals: Daily or 5-times-weekly dosing is preferred, particularly during the intensive phase and in patients with HIV. If neither is feasible, daily (or 5-times-weekly) dosing for the intensive phase followed by 3-times-weekly dosing during the continuation phase may be considered. Directly observe therapy for any regimen that is <7 days/week dosing (Ref). Note: 3-times-weekly dosing for the duration of treatment and twice-weekly dosing during the continuation phase are associated with worse outcomes compared to daily dosing (Ref).

Tuberculosis, latent infection; treatment

Tuberculosis, latent infection; treatment: Infants, Children, and Adolescents: Independent of HIV status: Oral: 15 to 20 mg/kg/day once daily; maximum dose: 600 mg/dose; use in combination with isoniazid for 3 months or as monotherapy for 4 months (Ref). Higher doses of 20 to 30 mg/kg/dose have been recommended for infants and young children (Ref).

Dosage adjustment for concomitant therapy: Significant drug interactions exist, requiring dose/frequency adjustment or avoidance. Consult drug interactions database for more information.

Dosing: Kidney Impairment: Pediatric

There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling; however, based on experience in adults, dosage adjustment is likely unnecessary.

Dosing: Hepatic Impairment: Pediatric

Baseline hepatic impairment: There are no dosage adjustments provided in the manufacturer's labeling; use with caution. If hepatic function worsens, discontinue therapy.

Hepatotoxicity during therapy: Discontinue therapy.

Adverse Reactions (Significant): Considerations
Clostridioides difficile infection

Clostridioides difficile infection (CDI) has occurred, including Clostridioides difficile-associated diarrhea (in one case in a patient receiving concurrent clindamycin) (Ref) and Clostridioides difficile colitis. Antituberculosis medications, such as rifampin have rarely been associated with CDI. Additionally, rifampin may decrease the risk of CDI from higher risk antibiotics (eg, clindamycin) and has been used in the treatment of CDI (Ref).

Onset: Varied; may start on the first day of antibiotic therapy or up to 3 months postantibiotic (Ref).

Risk factors:

• Antibiotic exposure (highest risk factor) (Ref)

• Type of antibiotic (Ref)

• Long durations in a hospitalization or other health care setting (recent or current) (Ref)

• Older adults (Ref)

• Immunocompromised conditions (Ref)

• A serious underlying condition (Ref)

• GI surgery/manipulation (Ref)

• Antiulcer medications (eg, proton pump inhibitors and H2 blockers) (Ref)

• Chemotherapy (Ref)

Hematologic effects

Decreased hemoglobin, disorder of hemostatic components of blood (vitamin K-dependent), disseminated intravascular coagulation, eosinophilia, hemolysis, hemolytic anemia, hemorrhage, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia (especially with high-dose therapy) have been reported (Ref).

Mechanism: Not clearly established; likely immunologic (Ref).

Onset: Varied; with intermittent dosing, reactions have occurred within 3 to 6 months (Ref).

Risk factors:

• Intermittent exposure (Ref)

Hepatotoxicity

Hepatotoxicity of hepatocellular, cholestatic, and mixed patterns have been reported; may include asymptomatic abnormal hepatic function tests, isolated jaundice or hyperbilirubinemia, symptomatic self-limited hepatitis, or fulminant hepatic failure and death. Severe reactions, including fatalities, have occurred in patients with preexisting hepatic failure and in patients receiving concurrent hepatotoxic agents.

Mechanism: Not clearly established; possible mechanisms include hypersensitivity or metabolic idiosyncratic reactions (Ref).

Onset: Most cases occurred within 4 weeks in one study (Ref).

Risk factors:

• Longer duration of therapy (Ref)

• Age >60 years (Ref)

• Alcohol use disorder (Ref)

• Concurrent use of other hepatotoxic agents (eg, isoniazid, pyrazinamide) (Ref)

• Female sex (Ref)

• Low body mass index (Ref)

• Malnutrition (Ref)

• Preexisting liver disease (eg, chronic viral hepatitis) (Ref)

• HIV (Ref)

Hypersensitivity reactions (immediate and delayed)

Hypersensitivity reactions, both immediate (urticaria, angioedema, anaphylaxis) (Ref) and delayed have been reported. Flu-like symptoms or more severe shock-like syndrome may also occur (Ref). Delayed hypersensitivity reactions range from maculopapular skin rash (Ref) and fixed drug eruption (Ref) to rare severe cutaneous adverse reactions, including acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (Ref), drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) (Ref), Stevens-Johnson syndrome, and toxic epidermal necrolysis (Ref). Since rifampin is usually administered as part of a multidrug regimen, causality is difficult to determine in most cases (Ref). Hypersensitivity angiitis (Ref) and lichenoid eruption (Ref) have also occurred.

Mechanism: Immediate hypersensitivity reactions: Non–dose-related; likely immunologic (ie, IgE-mediated, with specific antibodies formed against a drug allergen following initial exposure) (Ref), although angioedema may be caused by a non–IgE-mediated mechanism (Ref). The flu-like syndrome may be caused by circulating antibodies complexing with rifampin (Ref) or direct toxic effect of the drug (Ref). Delayed hypersensitivity reactions: Non–dose-related; immunologic (ie, involving a T-cell mediated drug-specific immune response) (Ref).

Onset: Immediate hypersensitivity reactions: Rapid; generally occur within 1 hour of administration but may occur up to 6 hours after exposure (Ref). Some cases of urticaria associated with rifampin have been delayed occurring 2 to 3 weeks after initiation of drug (Ref). Flu-like syndrome generally occurs within 1 to 4 hours (Ref). Delayed hypersensitivity reactions: Varied; typically occur days to 8 weeks after drug exposure (Ref), but may occur more rapidly (usually within 1 to 4 days) upon reexposure (Ref).

Risk factors:

• Dose: Flu-like syndrome is considered dose-dependent (Ref)

• Intermittent regimen: Flu-like syndrome occurs more frequently with intermittent regimens (Ref)

• Age >60 years (Ref)

• HIV (Ref)

• Cross-reactivity: Conflicting reports of cross-reactivity with rifabutin (Ref)

Pulmonary toxicity

Potentially fatal interstitial pulmonary disease has been reported, including pneumonitis, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, eosinophilic pneumonitis, pulmonary infiltrates, acute respiratory distress syndrome, bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia, and pulmonary fibrosis (Ref). Patients with rifampin-induced pneumonitis typically present with low-grade fever and shortness of breath with or without cough (Ref).

Mechanism: Unknown; possibly immunologic (Ref).

Onset: Pneumonitis: Varied; 3 days to 13 weeks in a bimodal pattern with early and late onset but difficult to determine as fever is a common symptom in patients undergoing tuberculosis therapy (Ref).

Pregnancy Considerations

Rifampin crosses the human placenta. Postnatal hemorrhages have been reported in the infant and mother with administration during the last few weeks of pregnancy.

Rifampin is approved for the treatment of tuberculosis (TB). TB disease (active TB) is associated with adverse fetal outcomes, including intrauterine growth restriction, low birth weight, preterm birth, and perinatal death (Esmail 2018; Miele 2020), as well as adverse maternal outcomes, including increased risks for anemia and cesarean delivery. Placental transmission may rarely occur with active maternal disease (Miele 2020). Due to the risks of untreated TB, rifampin is recommended as part of the initial treatment regimen of drug-susceptible TB disease when the probability of maternal disease is moderate to high (ATS/CDC/IDSA [Nahid 2016]). Rifampin may also be considered for the treatment of TB infection (latent TB) (also known as prophylaxis or preventive therapy) in pregnant patients (WHO 2020). Rifampin may be associated with an increased risk of maternal hepatotoxicity, which may require temporary drug withdrawal in pregnant and postpartum patients (Beck-Friis 2020).

Rifampin is used off-label for the treatment of brucellosis infection. Brucellosis infection may increase the risk of spontaneous abortion; rifampin is recommended for the treatment of brucellosis infection during pregnancy (CDC 2017).

Rifampin may be considered for use as an alternative agent in pregnant patients for the treatment of mild illness due to human anaplasmosis (also known as human granulocytic anaplasmosis); case reports have shown favorable maternal and pregnancy outcomes in small numbers of rifampin-treated pregnant women (CDC [Biggs 2016]).

Breastfeeding Considerations

Rifampin is present in breast milk (Vorherr 1974).

Due to the potential for serious adverse reactions in the breastfeeding infant, the manufacturer recommends a decision be made whether to discontinue breastfeeding or to discontinue the drug, considering the importance of treatment to the mother. Breastfeeding is not a contraindication during therapy for drug-susceptible tuberculosis in patients deemed noninfectious who are treated with first-line agents (ie, rifampin). Exposure to rifampin via breast milk should not be considered effective treatment for the breastfeeding infant (ATS/CDC/IDSA [Nahid 2016]).

Monitoring Parameters

Baseline LFTs (AST, ALT, bilirubin), serum creatinine, CBC; periodic (every 2 to 4 weeks during therapy) monitoring of liver function in patients with preexisting hepatic impairment and periodic monitoring of serum creatinine and CBC in patients with baseline abnormalities. Monitor for signs/symptoms of liver injury (especially in prolonged therapy or with concurrent hepatotoxic drugs). Monitor mental status, sputum culture, chest X-ray 2 to 3 months into treatment, and for signs/symptoms of hypersensitivity (eg, fever, lymphadenopathy, eosinophilia, neutropenia, rash, hypotension, acute bronchospasm, conjunctivitis, flu-like syndrome). Monitor coagulation tests during treatment in patients at risk of vitamin K deficiency (eg, chronic liver disease, poor nutritional status, prolonged use of antibacterial agents or anticoagulants). Check platelets, renal function tests, serum lactate dehydrogenase, blood film for schistocytes (erythrocyte fragmentation), ADAMTS13 activity, and anti-ADAMTS13-antibody determination in patients with suspected thrombotic microangiopathy, thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, or hemolytic uremic syndrome. Monitor for symptoms of interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis.

Reference Range

TB treatment: Target peak: ≥8 mcg/mL at 2 and 6 hours post-dose (Alsultan 2014)

Mechanism of Action

Inhibits bacterial RNA synthesis by binding to the beta subunit of DNA-dependent RNA polymerase, blocking RNA transcription

Pharmacokinetics (Adult Data Unless Noted)

Duration: ≤24 hours.

Absorption: Oral: Well absorbed; food may delay or slightly reduce peak.

Distribution: Highly lipophilic; crosses blood-brain barrier well.

Vd: Neonates, Infants, Children, and Adolescents: ~1.1 L/kg (Nahata 1990; Smith 2019).

Relative diffusion from blood into CSF: Adequate with or without inflammation (exceeds usual MICs).

CSF:blood level ratio: Inflamed meninges: 25%.

Protein binding: 80%.

Metabolism: Hepatic; undergoes enterohepatic recirculation.

Half-life elimination:

Neonates and Infants <4 months (GA ≥23 weeks): PNA <14 days: Median: 7.1 hours (range: 3 to 23.9 hours); PNA ≥14 days: Median: 3.5 hours (range: 1.9 to 6.5 hours) (Smith 2019).

Infants ≥4 months and Children: ~1 to 4 hours.

Adults: ~2 to 3 hours (steady-state).

Time to peak, serum:

Infants and Children 6 months to <5 years: Oral: 1 hour.

Adults: Oral: ~2 hours (Acocella 1978).

Excretion: Feces (60% to 65%) and urine (≤30%) as unchanged drug.

Pharmacokinetics: Additional Considerations (Adult Data Unless Noted)

Altered kidney function: Half-life prolonged from 3.6 hours (GFR >50 mL/minute) to 5 hours (GFR 30 to 50 mL/minute), 7.3 hours (GFR <30 mL/minute) and 11 hours (patients who are anuric) following a single 900 mg dose. No increase in half-life has been observed with doses ≤600 mg/day.
