lyophilized plug or powder filled
in glass vial. May contain hydrochloric acid and/or sodium hydroxide
for pH adjustment. When

solution. This product is oxygen
sensitive. Solutions of vancomycin hydrochloride reconstituted with
Sterile Water for Injection
contain no bacteriostat and are intended for use only as a single-dose
injection. When smaller doses
are required, the unused portion should be discarded. When

Vancomycin has bactericidal action against a variety of Gram-positive
bacteria. It is not active in-
vitro against gram-negative bacilli, mycobacteria or fungi. It exerts
its action by inhibiting cell wall
biosynthesis of susceptible bacteria. There is also evidence that
Vancomycin alters the permeability
of the cell membrane and selectively inhibits ribonucleic acid
synthesis. There is no cross-
resistance between Vancomycin and other antibiotics.
Microbiology - The bactericidal action of vancomycin results primarily
from inhibition of cell-wall
biosynthesis. In addition, vancomycin alters bacterial-cell-membrane
permeability and RNA
synthesis. There is no cross- resistance between vancomycin and other
antibiotics. Vancomycin is
not active in vitro against gram
