How long does it take for vancomycin to show symptoms?

Symptoms may occur as soon as four minutes after initiating the first dose until up to seven days after dose completion. Patients with infections treated with intravenous vancomycin are at risk of developing RMS. The signs and symptoms of RMS include:[1][2] Erythematous rash on the face, neck, and upper torso.

Where did vancomycin come from?

Vancomycin was discovered in 1952 in soil obtained from the jungles of Borneo. Initial preparations of the antibiotic lacked purification and were brown. Therefore, many referred to vancomycin as "Mississippi mud." Clinicians initially thought VFS, otic, and renal toxicity were secondary to impurities in vancomycin. However, even after vancomycin was purified, VFS continued to be observed. Animal and several human studies indicate vancomycin activates the degranulation of mast cells and basophils increasing histamine release. The amount of histamine release has been correlated with the dose and the rate of vancomycin infusion. However, not all studies correlate elevated histamine levels with severe cases of VFS and suggest histamine metabolism may also be delayed due to inhibition of histamine N-methyltransferase and diamine oxidase enzymes. [7][1]

How fast does vancomycin infusion work?

[4][5][6]It is often related to a rapid infusion rate of vancomycin (1 gram in less than 1 hour). The current treatment recommendations are to administer vancomycin at a rate no faster than 1 gram/hour or 10 mg/min. VFS most often begins 4 to 10 minutes from the start of the first dose of intravenous vancomycin. It may occur later during the infusion or begin shortly after dose completion. VFS may occur from later doses as far out as seven days. [1][2]

Is VFS an anaphylactic reaction?

VFS should be differentiated from an anaphylactic reaction. Both VFS and anaphylactic reactions will have similar findings of pruritus, erythematous rash, and tachycardia. Anaphylactic reactions involve stridor, angioedema, hives, and wheezing from bronchospasm. Anaphylactic reactions are IgE mediated and require prior exposure. VFS is a rate-related anaphylactoid adverse reaction which most often occurs during the first exposure to intravenous vancomycin. [11][12]

Is VFS a rash?

Patients under 40 years of age are at the greatest risk of severe VFS reactions. Severe reactions include angioedema, hypotension, tachycardia, weakness, muscle spasms, and chest or back pain in addition to a rash of the face, neck, and upper torso. VFS usually is mild and easily managed. There are rare cases of life-threatening VFS reactions. [1]

Does vancomycin release histamine?

The amount of histamine release is generally related to the dose of vancomycin infused and the rate of infusion. RMS is generally associated with more rapid infusion rates but can be seen following slower infusion rates and after several days of transfusion.
