Abstract

We retrospectively studied vancomycin taper and pulse treatment on 100 consecutive, evaluable patients with recurrent Clostridium difficile infection. Following taper to once-daily vancomycin dosing, 22 of 36 patients (61%) who received every-other-day dosing (QOD) and 50 of 64 (81%) who received QOD followed by every-third-day dosing were cured (P = .03). Published by Oxford University Press for the Infectious Diseases Society of America 2017. This work is written by (a) US Government employee(s) and is in the public domain in the US.
