Another cause?: As you have experienced before, cephalexin usually doesn't cause such symptoms. Most people tolerate it very well. So maybe it's not the cause? Try taking it with food, which will not interfere with absorption or effectiveness. Or ask your doctor or pharmacist about a different formulation, like capsules. Why are you taking the liquid form anyway?
