Keflex is a Cephalosporin antibiotic that inhibits the cell wall development in bacteria. It is effective in the treatment of Sinusitis that is related to bacterial infections. Be sure and note the side effects of antibiotic treatment that can be mild to severe. If you have never taken a Cephalasporin my advice is to see a physician before doing so or at a minimum do a drug interaction search (if you are on other meds) As with all antibiotics continued and chronic use can deteriorate their effectiveness and lead to resistant bacteria. Use them sparingly as needed.

Good luck
