I was given the generic version of Keflex after having surgery to remove an oily cyst. I took the medicine for two days and then suddenly developed a urinary problem that I couldn't go and finally I could go but it was very weak stream and painful.

Was given Keflex after having 2 skin cancers removed, to prevent infection rather than to treat it. Started feeling melancholy on the same day. Two days later I was seriously depressed and could not stop crying. This made no sense to me and is out of character.

I am concerned that someone could kill themself whilst in the kind of state that I was in.

I have been prescribed this medication many times for tooth absesses or infections and it is the only one that cures my problem. Regular penicillin drugs never helped me at all. This also unlike the penicillin drugs will not give you a yeast infection and I never had any side effects.
