It has two components. While Rifampicin and Rifabutin (and Penicillin,Amoxi and a few others) are directly showing effects on the contraceptives drugs effects, there is another factor that shouldn't be underestimated: ABs can and will cause digestive symptoms, fastening gastric passage and that alone is known to reduce the effectiveness of hormonal contraceptives countless times.

That is true. I didn't think of it from that angle. I haven't read too much into that. But now I will. Thanks for the info.

For the record, always use secondary contraception if you're in doubt. I should have said that in my first post.
