Antibiotic White Capsule 802
3 Topics FoundI found these pills in an unmarked bottle. Are they an antibiotic and if so, for the treatment of what? ## Yes, Belcher Pharmaceuticals lists these capsules as containing 500mgs of Cephalexin, this antibiotic is used to treat various types of bacterial infections. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, diarrhea, headache, and non-allergic skin rash. NDC code: 62250-0802 It should only be taken, if your doctor has confirmed the presence of an infection, since taking them when they are not actually needed could result in your developing antibiotic resistance, and that may put you in serious danger in the future. Where did you find them?

I found a white pill in capsule form with the number 802 printed on the top half. What is it? ## This tablet contains 500mgs of the antibiotic Cephalexin that is used to treat various types of infections. Learn more Cephalexin details here. The name brand for this would be Keflex and, in many cases, it's manufactured in capsule form, it isn't common to see the tablets. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Living in a small town and a drugstore that is really old but very nice and quaint, I'm wondering if the off brand of Keflex with a 802-Cephalexin on it and white capsule is the older one of the off brands or is it just as good as the red and green ones? Also it seems that it takes longer to get meds if needed. I live in the country and the closest pharmacy is 40 mile...
