Is There Any Ibuprofen In Cephalexin

I'm deadly allergic to ibuprofen and I'm scared to take cephalexin. Will I be okay?

Hello, Shanon95! How are you?

No, Cephalexin is the active ingredient, it's an antibiotic. The U.S. FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.

However, you should be aware that there is a risk of your discovering more medications that you are also allergic to.

Is there anything else I can help with?
