I never took keflex before. i took amoxicilin before, i'm not allergic to it. is there anyway i can try to see if im allegric before i take full dose?

No: Most people do not become allergic to antibiotics yet it can develop at any time. Thus there is no way to tell ahead of time whether you may be allergic to an antibiotic or not.
