Vancomycin
This powerful glycopeptide antibiotic is used intravenously to treat serious bacterial infections caused by gram-positive organisms, including methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and is taken orally specifically to treat Clostridioides difficile (C. diff) colitis. It is typically reserved for infections resistant to other antibiotics due to concerns about resistance. Blood levels, kidney function, and hearing must be carefully monitored during intravenous treatment.
