Abstract

Vancomycin and other vancomycin-type antibiotics, which contain asparagine, as the third residue are prepared in storable prepackaged solutions. The antibiotics are made storage-stable by the incorporation of a short chain peptide of the class binding to vancomycin. The solutions may be used for intravenous, oral, or peritoneal administration, and also in diagnostic uses.
