Cephalexin hydrate CAS:15686-71-2

Cephalexin hydrate is widely used to treat a variety of bacterial infections, including respiratory tract infections like pneumonia and bronchitis, skin and soft tissue infections such as cellulitis and wound infections, urinary tract infections like cystitis and pyelonephritis, and bone infections. It is also effective in treating streptococcal infections, including strep throat. Healthcare providers may prescribe cephalexin hydrate based on the specific type of bacterial infection and its severity. Patients are typically advised to take cephalexin hydrate as directed by their healthcare provider and complete the full course of treatment to ensure the infection is completely eradicated. Cephalexin hydrate is well-absorbed when taken orally and is generally safe and well-tolerated, but like all antibiotics, it can cause side effects such as gastrointestinal disturbances, allergic reactions, and interactions with other medications. It is important to inform your healthcare provider about any allergies or medical conditions you have before starting cephalexin hydrate. If you experience any concerning symptoms while taking this medication, contact your healthcare provider for further evaluation and advice.
