Indication
Vancomycin is a widely used antibiotic in the clinic whenever you suspect methicillin-resistant staphylococci (surgery, endocarditis, abscess). Vancomycin is also given as an alternative to infections caused by Gram positive bacteria in patients allergic to penicillins, cephalosporins or other beta-lactam antibiotics due to the possibility of cross-allergy between betalactams.
