Yes but it is perfered by a doctor not to because it lessens the medication from working because you are adding bacteria to what it is already trying to kill making the medicine work harder and it will take longer for you to get better

I am not a doctor, but smoking cigarettes while taking any medication, including cephalexin, may have potential interactions and could affect your health. Cephalexin is an antibiotic, and smoking has been linked to various health issues, including respiratory problems.

It's essential to consult with a healthcare professional or your prescribing doctor about any potential interactions between cigarettes and your medication. They can provide personalized advice based on your health status and medical history. If you have concerns about smoking and medication interactions, it's crucial to address them with your healthcare provider for the most accurate and safe guidance.
