Can Nitrofurantoin And Cephelexin Be Taking Together

No allergic reaction to mediation. My daughter has had hydronephrosis since she was 3 months old. She has specialist at Radi children hospital but I cant reach her right now. My daughter is 7 now. And her left kidney upper pole is dead but swollen. She has been taking nitrofurantoin for 4 years now. Yesturday URGENT care found out she had a BAD UTI just useing a dip stick. They prescriped cephelexin. This even I accidently gave her both within an hour of each other. Ive been watching her and she seems fine. But I need to know for my own peace of mind. Because she already has kidney problems should I bring her into emergency or wait until morning?

They can be taken, together, but only with her doctor's approval.

The FDA lists the typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, diarrhea, and non-allergic skin rash. The side effects might be worse, if they are both combined, so you should be aware of that.

How is she doing? Has there been any change?

She seems fine. She has a left renal disorder this is why Im concernd because those meds are harsh on the kidneys. Im calling this morning to make an appointment with her doctor.
