1. A capsule comprising a mixture of: immediate release dosage compositions having a size ranging from about 100 .mu.m to about 2 mm, wherein each immediate release
dosage composition comprises rifabutin and amoxicillin; and extended release dosage compositions having a size ranging from about 100 .mu.m to about 2 mm, wherein each extended release dosage composition comprises a proton pump inhibitor, and wherein
the capsule provides, when multiple capsules are administered daily to a patient for a total daily dose of about 150 mg rifabutin, multiple peak plasma concentrations (C.sub.max) of rifabutin with a mean rifabutin C.sub.max ranging from about 60 ng/mL to
about 113 ng/mL.
2. The capsule of claim 1, wherein the amoxicillin is amoxicillin trihydrate. 3. The capsule of claim 1, wherein the proton pump inhibitor is one of omeprazole, pantoprazole, lansoprazole, ilaprazole, dexlansoprazole, esomeprazole and rabeprazole, pharmaceutically acceptable salt and solvates thereof or combinations thereof. 4. The capsule of claim 3, wherein the omeprazole is magnesium omeprazole. 5. The capsule of claim 1, wherein the extended release dosage compositions are enteric-coated. 6. The capsule of claim 1, wherein the immediate release dosage compositions comprise both rifabutin and amoxicillin trihydrate, and wherein the extended release dosage compositions comprise magnesium omeprazole. 7. The capsule of claim 1 wherein the immediate release dosage compositions and the extended release dosage compositions are selected from the group consisting of pellets, microgranules, granulates, minitablets, and drug crystals. 8. The capsule of claim 7 wherein the immediate release dosage compositions and the extended release dosage compositions are selected from one of pellets and minitablets. 9. The capsule of claim 1 wherein the immediate release dosage compositions and the extended release dosage compositions are in the form of minitablets. 10. The capsule of claim 1 comprising: 12.5 mg rifabutin; 250 mg amoxicillin; and 10 mg omeprazole or an equivalent amount of omeprazole magnesium. 11.
