Vancocin Information:
What is Vancocin?
Vancocin contains vancomycin, a gylcopeptide antibiotic. It works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis in bacteria that aren’t resistant to the drug. This destroys the bacteria and clears the infection.
How do I take Vancocin?
Vancocin pills are normally taken 3 or 4 times per day for around 10 days depending on your illness. Your doctor will prescribe the right amount. Follow your doctor’s dosing instructions. You should take your pills at the same times every day. Injectable Vancocin is normally administered by a healthcare provider.
Before taking Vancocin, tell your doctor if:
- You are allergic to any of the ingredients in Vancocin.
- You are pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You have inflammatory bowel disease, Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis.
- You have kidney or liver disease.
- You have trouble hearing.
- You are taking any other prescription or nonprescription drugs, especially any other antibiotics.
What are the possible side effects of taking Vancocin?
Possible side effects from taking Vancocin include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, indigestion and mild abdominal pain. If any of these side effects are severe or don’t go away, tell your doctor. If you experience signs of a urinary tract infection, depression, insomnia, constipation, low blood pressure or an allergic reaction, tell your doctor as soon as possible.
What if I forget to take a dose of Vancocin?
If you forget to take a dose of Vancocin, take the missed dose as soon as you remember. If it’s almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue on your regular schedule. You may have to continue your treatment for another day in order to take all the pills prescribed to you. Ask your doctor or pharmacist what to do.
How do I store Vancocin?
Store Vancocin capsules at a temperature between 59 and 86 degrees Fahrenheit. Protect the medication from moisture and keep it out of reach of children and pets. Injectable Vancocin will most likely be stored by the healthcare provider. If you take it home, it must be kept in the refrigerator and removed one hour before injecting.
What happens if I overdose on Vancocin?
Vancocin drug overdose could cause kidney failure. If you or someone you know has overdosed on Vancocin, call the Poison Control Center at 1-800-222-1222. If this is an emergency, call 911.
Warnings
Patients over 65 are more vulnerable to the possibility of having kidney problems from taking Vancocin. Always take all of the Vancocin you are prescribed, even if you feel better. Not finishing a course of antibiotics can cause the bacteria to become resistant to the drug.
