Vancomycin Mnemonic for Nursing (NCLEX) | Mechanism of Action, Dosing, Administration

Review Vancomycin's mechanism of action, dosing, and administration in this mnemonic. Vancomycin is an antibiotic used to treat MRSA and C. Diff., among other bacterial infections. It has a narrow therapeutic range of 10-20 mcg/mL, so vancomycin drug levels will need to be checked periodically during treatment. Signs that vancomycin drug levels are too high include ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity. And lastly, if vancomycin is infused too quickly, it can cause red man syndrome, so be sure to infuse the drug over at least 60 minutes.
