Vancomycin 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 a sour stomach. I was told by my physician that I will be taking this treatment for one month."

For Clostridioides difficile Infection "At first, I seemed to be really tired, but now I have insomnia. Also, ringing in my ears and occasional belly ache. Only halfway through my course of 10 days. Has stopped my diarrhea, though."

For Bacterial Infection "The medicine works, but the procedure is intravenous through a PICC line. And the side effects of headaches and stomach cramps because of diarrhea are really bad."
