Diagnosis accurate?: Colitis induce by Amoxicillin is usually due to clostridium difficile (not identified by culture). The course of therapy you are receiving is questionable, but then again you have not given a good deal of necessary information. If your diarrhea returns when finished with the vancomycin you should see an infectious diseases expert. Hope this clears soon.
