La vancomicina è un farmaco antibiotico prodotto da che fa parte, insieme con la teicoplanina, della classe dei glicopeptidi. Sono molecole ad alto peso molecolare, che agiscono inibendo la polimerizzazione della parete del peptidoglicano dei batteri gram positivi. L'alto peso molecolare non consente a tali molecole l'attraversamento della membrana cellulare esterna dei germi Gram negativi, per cui la vancomicina è inefficace contro questi batteri; unica eccezione sono i Flavobacterium. Essendo stata diffusamente impiegata per debellare infezioni da Staphylococcus aureus si sono sviluppate resistenze, fino alla nascita di ceppi di S. Aureus particolarmente resistenti come il VISA: (Vancomycin Intermediate S. Aureus) e il VRSA (Vancomycin Resistant S. Aureus).
