User Reviews for Keflex

Keflex (cephalexin) for Bladder Infection: I usually never have side effects from antibiotics, but I had moderate dizziness and nausea. The nausea is not bad enough to send me to bed all day, but it does interfere with my daily schedule and leaves me extremely worn out and fatigued. It is frustrating. I have to take it four times a day for ten days.

Keflex (cephalexin) for Skin Infection: I get recurring cases of impetigo and Keflex is always my go-to drug. Keflex clears up the infection quickly, and I've never experienced any side-effects, even if I take it on an empty stomach. Highly recommended!

Keflex (cephalexin) for Upper Respiratory Tract Infection: Horrible, did not work at all on my husband's bronchitis and his bronchitis turned into pneumonia.

Keflex (cephalexin) for Skin Infection: Along with the use of Itchamol ointment this clears boils up very quickly.

Keflex (cephalexin) for Bacterial Infection: I was prescribed Keflex for an infection that occurred after root canal went bad. Evidently the previous dentist had not been able to successfully remove all of the nerve and pulp and over time an infection resulted. Keflex was well tolerated by me and helped to reduce the swelling within the gum until I was able to have a root canal retreatment in order to remove the rest of the nerve and pulp. The rating that I provided is due to the fact that this medication required 4 doses daily which I felt there must have been some other medication available that required less commitment. Still, it did work and I would take it again if prescribed.

Keflex (cephalexin) for Skin Infection: Taking this 4x a day for my second bout with Cellulitis. Also taking Ultram for pain.

Keflex (cephalexin) for Skin Infection: I have suffered with ulcers on my ankles (poor circulation) for years. Every once in awhile one if not both will get infected. Legs swell and skin turns purple as well as becoming very sensitive. The ulcers feel as though hot needles are being shoved into them. Keflex always knocks out the infection within a few days.

Keflex (cephalexin) for Bladder Infection: It helped in getting rid of my bladder infection but I was out in the sun for half the day doing some work outside, and I got horribly burnt and a bad sun rash. So just try to avoid the sun while on this medication.

Keflex (cephalexin) for Skin Infection: Works very well for treating the cellulitis I got from an insect bite. But don't drink alcohol while you are on this medication. I had half a beer and started feeling really nauseous, had a migraine and my stomach hurt.

Keflex (cephalexin) for Otitis Media: I'm allergic to lots of medicines but this works.

Keflex (cephalexin) for Acne: This was and continues to be the best, long term option for me. I had very little side effects ... slight headache at first but it went away after a few days.

Keflex (cephalexin) for Acne: After taking doxycycline for a while, my body became resistant to it, so my dermatologist switched me to Keflex for acne. I think I had at least five bowel movements the first day. Eventually, my digestive system became somewhat regular, but then I started getting headaches on a regular basis. It cleared up my acne somewhat, but it was definitely not worth all the side effects.
