Had Keflex before and got no side effects at all, Im paraplegic and suffer from UTI's quite a lot, i am also allergic to penicillin. Got given keflex 2 days ago for another uti and this time round i am doing nothing but sleep, I can manage 9 hours awake before i start getting the head drop tiredness. I was given cefaclor last time too, only manage to take 1 of them (250mg) and i got some massive head dizzy spells and random arm twitching, that's when they was changed to keflex (500mg x3td) which im taking now.

No belly pains, well i felt as tho i was all stiff and rigid the first day i started the pills but the day after i was fine no pain at all, just the awful tiredness. I shall cope with it tho as I want rid of this foul smelling urine.

Keflex was not as bad as I thought it would be since I had recently been on Doxycycline which was torture.

I was put on Keflex for a UTI. I took 500mg 4 x a day for 12 days.

I experienced ringing in my ears which was tolerable because it was intermittent.

I had a continuous low-grade headache. When the headache would get worse I would take Advil, which would reduce it to low-grade again - it hardly ever went away completely until I was done the Keflex.

I also had diarrhea which is common with antibiotics. This too was tolerable.

I was nauseous pretty much the whole time but did not vomit.

The thing that bothered me the most is the way my body would feel like it was buzzing. My head would feel weird. And sounds such as running water in the sink, vacuum cleaner, rain on the windshield, etc, felt so loud and like a horrible rushing in my head.

It is a little hard for me to distinguish what was caused by the Keflex, or what was caused by the UTI, or the Endometriosis I might have, as well as the Doxycycline I had been on left some lasting effects.

I have been taking Keflex for about 6 days to treat wicked UTI and have started having discarge and vaginal irritation ... after looking back at the printed out info they give you with your meds those happen to be on the list and it says call doctor immediately!!! I am a 54 year old female ...and along with these symptoms I had some spotting!!
