Hello everyone, I was recently prescribed Cefaclor 250mg Capsules for a urinary tract infection. I've taken it a few times and I'm curious about others' experiences with this antibiotic. How effective have you found it to be? What have you done to deal with the side effects, like diarrhea or headaches? I've also heard some terrifying stuff about serious side effects. Has anyone else had any serious reactions to them? Please share your experiences and any tips you have. Thanks!

I took it and I felt like heck! I had a weird tingling feeling in my hands and feet. It's like something crawled up my legs. I didn't finish the prescription because it was just too strange.

My wife took Cefaclor and had no issues at all. She felt a little lightheaded after the first dose, but that was it. Definitely helpful to take with or after food.

I had a severe allergic reaction to Cefaclor but it was in combination with something else, I think. Got a fever and my skin got blistered. I broke out in hives and it was awful. Avoid if you have a history of allergies!

I've taken Cefaclor for a lung infection, and it worked great! No serious side effects, just a bit of nausea. Drink plenty of fluids and eat light meals to avoid an upset stomach.

My doctor suggested taking a probiotic when on it. That helped a lot with stomach issues and I had not diarrhea.

I had severe diarrhea after taking this. Definitely not fun but it didn't last long. Give it a few hours but if it gets bad, talk to a doctor.
