Vancomycin is a glycopeptide antibiotic used mainly for the treatment of serious or severe infections caused by susceptible strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and other Gram-positive bacteria. It is often reserved for infections that do not respond to other antibiotics and is approved and widely used today especially in hospital settings.
Pharmacokinetics
Adult healthy volunteers, intravenous administration, standard dosage.
