Precautions and side effect: 

Diarrhea may occasionally occur, allergic reactions may be observed, but the incidence is much less than that seen with penicillins. Avoid use in animals with a history of acute allergy to penicillin

Interactions:

Cephalosporins combined with an aminoglycoside antibiotic or potent loop diuretic (eg-furosemide), may increase the probability of nephrotoxicosis from that which one would experience with either drug being used alone.

Store in a dry, dark place between 20oC and 25oC.
