Cephalexin

[Guest guest]

My son just had to start taking Cephalexin for a bug bite infection that started

creeping up his arm . He's being doing so well this summer and I'm afraid of

what this antibiotic will do to him. He usually does not respond well to any

antibiotics.

Any suggestions about what he can do to try to lessen side effects from the

Cephalexin would be appreciated. He's taking it with yogurt and SCD legal

probiotics. Should I put him back on the intro diet just to be safe?

Thanks

taking acidophilus and s boullardi??? i'd give both - can't remember now what to

take at what times with antibiotics- haven't had to take them thank God - sorry

to hear - hopefully with the yog and probios he'll do fine -keep them up big

time at the end as it kills the bad bacteria first then will kill off your good

stuff near the end of the 7-10 days etc - i would save intro to pull him out of

D if he gets that etc - i don't think you should change for no reason - just my

thoughts - :-)
