Abstract:
Vancomycin is a widely used tricyclic glycopeptide antibiotic for treating various Gram-positive infections, including Clostridium difficile colitis. Although considered generally safe, it has been associated with several side effects. In this case report, we highlight a rare adverse effect in which a patient experienced chronic photophobia following treatment with oral vancomycin. This sheds light upon a potential relationship between oral vancomycin therapy and photophobia, emphasizing the need for increased awareness in clinical practice and urging further investigation into this association.
摘要:
万古霉素是一种广泛使用的三环糖肽抗生素,用于治疗各种革兰氏阳性感染,包括艰难梭菌结肠炎。虽然总体上被认为是安全的,它与一些副作用有关。在这个案例报告中,我们强调了一种罕见的不良反应,患者在口服万古霉素治疗后出现慢性畏光.这揭示了口服万古霉素治疗与畏光之间的潜在关系,强调需要提高临床实践的认识,并敦促进一步调查这种关联。
