A member asked:
Can i drink beer and take keflex?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
In moderation: There is no specific interaction between ethanol and keflex. A drink or two with Cephalexin isn't going to interact, but moderation is the key. Too much alcohol and your body's ability to fight off infection is lowered, which defeats the purpose of taking an antibiotic in the first place.
