“Our partnership with Tabula Rasa HealthCare and DoseMeRx enables providers to easily optimize the dosing of vancomycin and other high-risk antimicrobials,” said VigiLanz Chairman and CEO David Goldsteen, MD. “This is especially critical with the release of the new vancomycin dosing guidelines, which are indicative of a growing trend toward increased medication safety.
