Cephalexin and other antibiotics will not treat viral infections such as the flu or the common cold.

This medication may be prescribed for other uses.  Ask your doctor or pharmacist for more information.

If you take too much cephalexin, call your healthcare provider or local Poison Control Center, or seek emergency medical attention right away.
