User Reviews for Keflex oral

I have bronchiactisis, and have only portions of a lung,

my tooth is really hurting and the dentist will not work on it, he wont give me a root canel, so now its hurting under my jaw, the whole lenght of the jaw, like the face part. so i started myself on keflex, will this help , is there some kind of infection going on. im going to report him to the ADA. my tooth is in a lot of pain. my the tender touch to my skin on the jaw line is the worst.... am i ok with the keflex??? Thanks Diane.

Have what turned out to be a staph infection in my thumb. Was prescribed Keflex 4X500mg per day for 3 weeks. Much better in 5 days. Eating with this medication and also took a lot of Jarro-Dophilus EPS probiotic (Whole Foods) to help with stomach and digestive issues and this seems to have helped because some antibiotics make me very sick.

My doctor prescribed this when I had the boil. Didn't help at all.

I was prescribed this medication for an infected wisdom tooth that has to be removed. It was necessary to take an antibiotic to get rid of the infection in my tooth, take down the swelling and pain in my jawbone, and as per dentists advice , was necessary for many reasons so that the condition would not get worse. I was in much pain and did not feel good at all,which was a period of 3 or 4 days.I noticed as soon as I had taken the first tablet that it started to act on relieving the pain,swelling and jawbone trouble. I am very happy and grateful with the remarkable results that the keflex has given me. As for the side effects, they were few, being indigestion, some constipation, all until I had adjusted to the medication. I had been lucky, and hope that anyone needing to take an antibiotic for any reason has good luck too, and no health problems with it. Read More Read Less

My doctor prescribed this for me to clear up a bacterial infection post-op. My knee feels better, but I have been soooo tired! Is this normal? I have read all of the reviews and haven't seen anyone else with this problem.

I have just started taking this medication so we'll see how well it works. I seen someone said that you should not ever take probiotics while taking antibiotics, I dont know where you got that from but taking probiotics is the BEST thing you can do to help put the good bacteria back in your system and also help keep you from getting a yeast infection. DUH

I took the medication according to directions but still have the infection.

This medicine worked great & quickly in treating my UTI. But also as a result of taking this medication I developed a vaginal yeast infection & now have to take another medication to treat that problem.

I was given this medication from the dermatologist for a skin infection. However, by taking this medication i had also developed a really bad yeast infection as well it was horrible, i got frequent stomach and headaches while taking this medication as well. I will never take it again.

I have taken this medication before and it has been effective. I have however, developed a yeast infection after using this antibiotic for a few days. I am prepared for it. My script has me taking a 500mg capsule 4 times per day so I find it important to have something in my stomach. No other side effects.

My doctor suspected strep throat & middle ear infection along with beginning of sinus infection. I have mixed connective tissue disease with Systemic Lupus being part of that. I do have Mitral Valve Prolapse. I've had no problems with it at all. I've been taking it for days now. I don't care for the smell though. I take so many other medications that taste bad, I didn't notice anything there. I take all 11 pills at once. Plenty of those taste bad. I've had Cipro a few times & it seemed to be losing its effectiveness, so he put me on this. My throat hasn't gotten much better, but it is definitely not worse. I get a sore throat & usually strep & laryngitis or pharyngitis every time I get sick. They tend to get pretty bad. But we caught this one at the beginning.Read More Read Less

seen to have a thrush and vaginal problem starting about 4 days after i took the medication prior to going to denist

I had a really bad infection in my leg and was prescribed kefelex. My symptoms didnt clear up immediately but around day 5 I noticed a change. I took tylenol for the pain and was prescribed diflucan to prevent a yeast infection.

I couldn't believe how fast it worked, within taking 2-3 doses, my infection site was visibly looking better and felt 80% better! Incredible, only thing that wasn't fun, was it made me terribly sick to my stomach, and dizzy, but it was well worth it, I'm 100% better now!
