A member asked:
Vancomycin. 11days of it. docs want me to finish it. have about 11 more days left. why would they want me to finish it? said small case of c diff.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
That is proper.: C. Diff is a serious infection. There is no such thing as a "small" case of it. There is a potential for a disaster if it is not treated properly and completely. Finish your meds and talk to your doctor. Do not stop the med unless you are told to.
