Cefaclor is a semisynthetic β-lactam antibiotic drug belonging to the cephalosporin subgroup. Like all β-lactams, cefaclor readily reacts with tissue proteins in vivo, thereby sensitizing susceptible individuals. The allergenic determinants (epitopes) of cephalosporins such as cefaclor are not fully known. This is a consequence of the unstable structures which are formed upon reaction with lysine amino groups in proteins. The primary unstable conjugates are rapidly degraded and transformed into structures where the six-membered dihydrothiazine ring is absent.
Immediate reactions (maximum 1 hour after drug intake) have the highest probability of being IgE-mediated. Clinical pictures typical for immediate reactions to β-lactams are urticaria, with or without angioedema, and anaphylaxis.
