Lower abdominal discomfort after taking keflex. finished 7 day prescription. stools look normal. and i'm going my normal amount daily. is this normal?

It's common: Stomach upset and nausea is a common adverse effect of any antibiotic. It's likely to improve over several days. Avoiding spicy foods and dairy until feeling better as well as limiting coffee/caffein intake to one serving daily may hasten improvement.
