bacterial infection
"I'm currently half way through my keflex treatment for a skin infection on my ankle I'm prescribed 500mg twice a day for 30 days. I wish I could be one of the few to say this has been a pleasant experience. I'm not sure if whatever this infection is is just highly resistant or was just that bad, but I'm on week 3 and have only seen mild improvement so far. Plus this stinky antibiotic is making me miserable... Nausea, diarrhea 5xs a day on average, stomach cramps, and joint aches. I've been taking probiotics the entire time I've been on keflex because I've always had issues with yeast infections even prior to this. I plan on calling the dr tomorrow to see if I have any alternatives."
