Hi Lilianna,

Keflex is a medication that contains the active ingredient Cefalexin; which is used to treat a number of infections including: otitis media, streptococcal pharyngitis, bone and joint infections, pneumonia, cellulitis, and urinary tract infections.

I know that this medication is prescribed by doctors as well as veterinarians, however I don't recommend taking any medication that wasn't prescribed to you by your doctor.

You can learn more about this drug on the page for Keflex Details

I hope this helps!
