Cephalexin is a first-generation cephalosporin antibiotic that inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), leading to cell lysis and death.
Cephalosporin antibiotic that inhibits bacterial cell wall synthesis by binding to penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs), inhibiting transpeptidation and autolysin activation, leading to cell lysis.
250-500 mg orally every 6 hours for 10-14 days; maximum 4 g/day.

1.5–2 hours in adults with normal renal function; prolonged to 20–30 hours in severe renal impairment (CrCl <10 mL/min)
Terminal elimination half-life: 0.5-1 hour (normal renal function); prolonged to 2-3 hours in anuria. Clinically, dosing every 6 hours is recommended.
Primarily renal (90–95%) as unchanged drug via glomerular filtration and tubular secretion; biliary excretion negligible (<1%)
Renal: 70-80% unchanged via glomerular filtration and tubular secretion; biliary: minimal (<5%); fecal: <1%.
