For Nasal Carriage of Staphylococcus aureus "I am finishing up a six-week cycle of rifampin in 6 days, and all I have to say is about 2 weeks into the cycle, I started to develop severe leg pain in my Achilles tendon area that has progressively gotten worse, so bad I have had thoughts of calling 911 in the middle of the night due to the severe 10/10 pain. Has anyone else experienced pain in their foot, leg, or even arms and hands while taking rifampin?"
