What is Cephalexin: Uses, Dosage, and Nursing Care about?

Cephalexin is a first-generation cephalosporin antibiotic used to treat infections caused by bacteria. It works by interfering with bacterial cell wall synthesis. Common side effects include oral thrush, diarrhea, and nausea. Rare but serious side effects include allergic reactions and antibiotic-associated colitis. Nurses should monitor patients for signs of side effects and superinfections while taking cephalexin.
