What Is Cephalexin 500mg Used For

Updated

I am having terrible headaches and was given cephalexin 500mg 4x a day + aspirin 81 mg 1 pill a day, for an infection in my hand from an IV injection site after surgery. Are headaches a normal reaction to this med?

Yes, both of them can possibly cause headaches as a side effect, according to the NIH. Other typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, stomach pain, and diarrhea.

Is there anything else I can help with?
