How to mitigate effects of antibiotics?
In a couple of weeks' time i'm going to be taking a course of oral
vancomycin
, a potent antibiotic. I have had considerably worsened RLS/PLMD symptoms on certain antibiotics before. On this occasion I can't elect a different antibiotic. Nor can i take probiotics.

Finally, we may have found the smoking gun.
The ER doctor thought she had cirrhosis, so they started her on Ceftriaxone and
Vancomycin
. Within hours, she crashed. And they scrambled, trying to figure out what was going on.

antibiotics
When I was discharged I went home with pic line of
vancomycin
. And weekly nurse visits for 2+months. Just be very careful. I’ve even been told I’m at hire risk of getting it again now. I also had to hold taking my ibrance so I could fight the bacteria.

Fighting for corrections is so hard.
The night before she passed, a student nurse set the speed on the IV for
vancomycin
incorrectly. And she will die in her sleep from Renal Failure. And I cursed myself over and over and over why I had heard rumors about this hospital.

Finally some progress
We now know this is red man syndrome caused by the misuse of
Vancomycin
. As the student nurse and resident struggled, she started to third space again, BP was dropping they pushed bolo's she third spaced more. Not realizing the
Vancomycin
had put her in renal failure.

Treating PD with levodopa combined with tetracycline (Effects of levodopa on gut bacterial antibiotic resistance in Parkinson’s disease rat)
The combination of levodopa and antibiotics, such as tetracycline and
vancomycin
, in the treatment of PD may decrease the amount of corresponding antibiotic resistance genes in gut bacteria, which would give a theoretical basis for treating PD with levodopa combined with tetracycline and

Oxidative Stress (ROS), Sleep and the Gut Microbiome: Staying Alive
The oral antibiotic
Vancomycin
also seems to preferentially favor A.mun whereas doxycycline is detrimental and degradess the microbiome even in low doses. We certainly don't want to take
Vancomycin
for this purpose due to emerging resistance of C. dificil and also renal toxicity.

New to Bronchiectasis
In the hospital, I was being treated with
vancomycin
intravenously, and I believe it may have killed the strenotrophomonas, because I haven't breathed this well for over a year.

He could not get rid of it with
vancomycin
. He would test neg after 4 weeks. The following week he was positive again. Finally the cancer took over with a 900 psa. We were going to go to Germany for the treatment of lu 117? We never made it.

So fed up
Was on IV
vancomycin
for 2 weeks which was horrible and oxycodone slow release along with as required for breakthrough pain. I've been home for 2 weeks now and was able to stop the oxycodone yesterday although still experiencing pain.

I received
Vancomycin
, which saved my life but took out my kidneys. So one day no kidney issues, the next day dialysis. That actually has nothing to do with my question, just a little background on me -- maybe I'll start checking in every now and then.

SIBO and Antibiotics
I have tried Rifaximin, ciprofloxacin ,
vancomycin
and Doxycycline and have not been able to take any them for any more than 2 days. Is anyone aware of any alternative ways to have antibiotics which would help me like intravenously or by injection to avoid my stomach.

Open Appendectomy Recovery Advice — Is my dad healing? What do I look out for now?
Today (Monday), they took him off the tube and put him on another type of antibiotics (
vancomycin
) in addition for his scar infection, which they haven’t told me is worse but I guess they are just trying something new?

Stem cell transplant anniversary
C. difficile was diagnosed and after a week of
Vancomycin
at home I went back into hospital feeling very unwell, a bit scared and rather desperate. I wasn't able to eat and was losing weight and becoming increasingly weak.
