I was just prescribed cefadroxil 500mg 2x/day for 10 days for an infected lump on my breast. i've never taken this before, but i've taken amoxicillin & cephalexin. if i was fine on those medicines & didn't have a reaction, will i be ok on cefadroxil?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably ok: Cefadroxil is a cephalosporin like Keflex so expect no problems!
