Summary 3.20 VancomycinThe chapter covers vancomycin, a glycopeptide antibiotic used for treating serious infections like MRSA. It works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis. Vancomycin is typically administered via IV for systemic infections and orally for C-diff. Key concerns include nephrotoxicity, ototoxicity, and "red man syndrome," which occurs with rapid infusion.
