Tablets
Cefaclor belongs to a group of antibiotics called the cephalosporins. They kill bacteria by interfering with the ability
of bacteria to form cell walls. The bacteria therefore break up and die.
Drug
Cefaclor, a cephalosporin antibiotic, is indicated in the treatment of:
- Urinary tract;
- Throat;
- Skin infections caused by specific bacteria including staph strep and E coli;

Uses include treatment of:

Cefaclor CD, an extended release form of the drug, is also indicated for flare-ups of chronic bronchitis.
If you are allergic to either penicillin or cephalosporin antibiotics in any form, consult your doctor before taking
Cefaclor. There is a possibility that you are allergic to both types of medication; and if a reaction occurs, it could
be extremely severe. If you take the drug and feel signs of a reaction, seek medical attention immediately.
