Résumé

Live BCG is a viable bacterium, and an active antibiotic may reduce its viability in the host. Cefadroxil has little expected activity against BCG, so the effect is largely theoretical.

Ce que signifie cette interaction, en termes simples

Bcg vaccine live and Cefadroxil can affect each other. The combination is often manageable, but it may need a change of dose, a change of timing, or extra checks while both are taken.

Niveau de preuve: Low

Pourquoi elle survient

Antibacterial activity could reduce replication of the live attenuated organism, though cephalosporin activity against BCG is limited.

Conduite à tenir

Where timing is flexible, give BCG after the antibiotic course is complete. Do not delay urgent vaccination solely because of cefadroxil.
