What Experts Say

Vancomycin works by stopping bacteria from building their protective cell wall, which kills the bacteria over time.

It is given as a slow intravenous infusion, usually over at least 60 minutes, since infusing it too fast can cause flushing and low blood pressure known as red man syndrome.

Kidney function and vancomycin blood levels are monitored closely during treatment, since high levels can damage the kidneys and hearing, especially with longer courses.
