Special Population Medication

Precautions for children: The efficacy and safety of this product for infants under one month have not yet been established. Precautions for pregnancy and lactation: Use with caution in pregnant and lactating women. Precautions for the elderly: According to literature reports, compared with healthy adult subjects under 45 years old, 40-50% of healthy elderly subjects (over 65 years old) who took 750 mg of cefaclor alone had high AUC and 20% had low renal clearance. These differences are mainly caused by age-related functional renal diseases. In clinical studies, when elderly patients took the recommended adult dose, the clinical effect and safety were similar to those of adult patients, and the doses taken by elderly patients were no different. Therefore, unless the elderly patients are weak, malnourished, and have severe renal impairment, there is generally no need to adjust the dose.
