Vancomycin hydrochloride CAS:1404-93-9
Vancomycin hydrochloride is an antibiotic medication primarily used to treat serious infections caused by Gram-positive bacteria that are resistant to other antibiotics. It is typically administered intravenously due to its poor oral absorption.
The main application of vancomycin hydrochloride is in the treatment of infections caused by methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and other multidrug-resistant Gram-positive bacteria. It is especially effective against serious infections like bloodstream infections, endocarditis, bone and joint infections, and pneumonia.
Vancomycin hydrochloride works by inhibiting the synthesis of cell walls in these bacteria, which ultimately leads to their death. It is particularly useful in cases where other antibiotics may not be effective due to resistance.
