Vancocin Reviews
For Meningitis "I was on IV vanc for various different things (Pneumonia, meningitis and shunt infections) in the last 8 years. It helped clear up the problems but did make me very sick ( vomiting) and diarrhoea, but but was nothing compared to the original problems! Very strong A/B but very powerful also"
For Bacteremia "The IV antibiotic given via PICC line is causing me to have Thrush mouth. I take Rocefin once a day and Vactomycin every 12 hours. I am feeling better but I am dealing with a lot of indigestion and sour stomach. I was told by my physician that I will be taking this treatment for one month."
