1) you can try cipro-,but I was in Mexico and there really was no definitive antibiotic for the alias "Montezumas Revenge"
2)tetracycline derivative or chloramphenicol (thx for putting this disease back in the memory bank)

VRE is vancomycin resistant enterococci ...and DOC for them is spectogramins( dalfoprustine etc)
