Keflex 60Ml Precautions

Keflex 60Ml Warnings
Warning 1
Prolonged use of cephalexin may result in the overgrowth of non-susceptible organisms. Careful observation of the patient is essential. If superinfection occurs during therapy, appropriate measures should be taken.
Warning 2
Cephalexin should be administered with caution in the presence of markedly impaired renal function as it is excreted mainly by the kidneys. Careful clinical and laboratory studies should be made because the safe dosage may be lower than that usually recommended.
Warning 3
Cephalexin is excreted in human milk in low concentrations and should be used with caution in nursing mothers.
