      http://5y1.org/file/20478/vancomycin-for-iv-use-in-adults.pdf

      Vancomycin has a low pH and may cause venous irritation and tissue damage in cases of extravasation. If a central venous access device is unavailable, administer via a large peripheral vein monitoring insertion site closely using a recognised phlebitis scoring tool. Resite cannula at first signs of inflammation.

      Vancomycin extravasation was successfully managed by utilizing cold compress for the first 24 hours post-extravasation with common gauze open dressings and silver sulfadiazine 1% until the wound was healed. With a potential for vancomycin extravasation when administered peripherally, we would recommend central venous administration.
