Drug Interactions
Aminoglycosides' nephrotoxic impact may be amplified. BCG, typhoid vaccination, and Na picosulfate may have a reduced therapeutic efficacy. Concurrent usage with warfarin may cause an increase in prothrombin time. Cefaclor excretion is inhibited by probenecid.
Mode of actions
Cefaclor binds to one or more penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), which inhibits the last transpeptidation stage of peptidoglycan production in the bacterial cell wall, halting biosynthesis and causing bacterial cell death.
