Frequently asked questions
- What does Vancocin Hydrochloride treat?
- Vancocin Hydrochloride (Vancomycin Hydrochloride) may be used to treat diarrhea, bacterial endocarditis, pseudomembranous enterocolitis, pneumococcal meningitis, neutropenia, postoperative complications, based on NIH RxClass drug-classification data (conditions a drug may treat — not a verbatim copy of the FDA-approved label).

- How much does Vancocin Hydrochloride cost?

What IS published is what the pharmacy paid to acquire it: about $1.49 per ml, per the CMS NADAC survey. Treat that as the floor, not the quote — ask the pharmacist for the cash price as well as your copay, because for cheap generics the cash price often wins.
