A member asked:
I think i took 1000 my of keflex on accident -- do i need to go to the doctor or can i wait it out at home? my stomach hurts really bad

No harm: One gram (1000 mg) cephalexin (Keflex) isn't such a big dose; it won't harm you at all. It probably isn't the main cause of your abdominal pain. Just go back to the dose that was prescribed, and contact your doctor if the pain continues. Good luck.
