My husband was prescribed vancomycin and he still had diarrhea so the doctor ordered metronidazole. He had diarrhea all night and terrible belly pain and has been throwing up. He has only drank sips of water during the night. Should he only take the new prescription today or should I take him to ER? (we live 40 miles from our hospital and ER).
Is there an interaction between vancomycin hydrochloride capsules 125 mg and metronidazole 500 mg?

The meds do not interact.
But your husband is in very bad shape. If I were you I would take him to the ER.
Hope he gets well soon.
