I was prescribed Keflex 500mg to take twice a day for strep throat. Since I started this medication I also came down with a cough, nasal congestion and I am soooo tired! I cant stay awake! I also have had problems with bowel movements. I took magnesium sulfate to try and loosen things up. It took two days before I finally had a bowel movement... very painful and bleeding! I don't know if the Keflex has caused the Castro symptoms or the terrible feeling of being tired all the time but it has been miserable! I have had a mild headache also, but nothing I cant live with. Just wondering if I should stop the medication? I started this on Wednesday of last week. It is now Monday.

My daughter,who is 11, was given Keflex 3 times a day to treat a staph infection. She has taken 6 days of the medication and now has a terrible pain in her stomach. She was told to stop taking the medication but has not been able to eat or go to school for the past 4 days.

I have been taking Keflex, 500 mg, 4 times a day now for 8 days. I have gained 6 pounds! I eat a lowcarb diet, and do not eat sugar. I am wondering if Keflex is elevating my insulin levels? I have four days left and am very hesitant to continue this medication!

Because I sleep so much, my back and ribs get so sore. Also, I feel like my muscles are weakening. I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. Does that make sense? I have had this disorder from the time I turned about 25. I am now 35. I have been to several Physicians and 90% think it's depression. However, the reason I'm depressed is because I'm so freaking tired. It takes everything I have to cook supper and wash dishes.
