Guest guest Posted May 29, 2001 Report Share Posted May 29, 2001 I don't remember all the medicines that can cause a loss to slow down and I'm sure it's a YMMV type of thing but anyone have any experience taking cephalexin? I believe it's commonly used for flesh infections. I had my ingrown toe nail removed last Monday (1 week ago) and it got infected Wed and I've been on medicine since Friday and my scales are pretty much stuck right now. ( I know it's only been a few days but I'm just trying to figure out if it's something I'm eating or if it could be the medicine. I only have a few days left but then again the stupid infection isn't gone yet either. I'm going back tonight b/c it is still red and hurts, part of the time it feels numb the other part of the time it feels like it's been hit with a hammer.

I just remembered I created a poll about that - at the web site, click on Polls then search for antibiotic. There are two entries for Macrodantin (one is me), neither had a probem. However from the other antibiotic entries, it looks roughly like about 1 in six people have a problem with each and there is no consistency.

Guest guest Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 a, there is a web site that I use that is pretty good at revealing interactions with drugs. It is drugreax.healthgate.com I found it one day by " Googling " . Did they do a protime on you? The only time I've had too high an INR it showed up as blood (actually hemoglobin) in my urine.
