Vancomycin oral

USES: This medication is an antibiotic used to treat infections.

HOW TO USE: Take this medication by mouth as directed usually three to four times a day for 7 to 10 days. For best results, take each dose at evenly spaced intervals around the clock. This will ensure a constant level of medication in your blood. Take this medication for the full time prescribed. Do not stop taking this without your doctor's approval. Stopping therapy too soon may result in a reinfection.

Be well & safe, do not either stop or start to take meds without speaking to the doc/pharmacist for a prescription.
