Best Answer

Cephalexin is first generation Cephalosporin. It is not over the counter medication. You have N.D.M.1 or Super-bug produced because of over the counter sell of Antibiotics in some of the developing countries. You kill a person and that person is killed. You kill an Antibiotic and and you kill millions of people. Penicillin was invented by Sir Alexander Fleming in 1928 and used therapeutically in world war two around 1942. Streptomycin was invented in 1944 and Cephalosporin in 1945. Subsequently you have many of them invented. In only 70 years you have almost killed them. Not a single Antibiotic is in pipeline and you are supposed to have a planning for next fifty million years. First Cloxacillin resistant Staphylococcus was reported in UK probably in 1964 and Super-bug is the end product in your hand as on today.
