Metformin
If
metformin and
cephalexin are combined, your body may metabolize the drugs differently than intended. This can significantly increase the amount of metformin in your system. Your healthcare provider may choose to monitor your progress and adjust your dosage accordingly, depending on your particular situation.

If you are taking cephalexin and receive a live, attenuated
typhoid vaccine, the vaccine may lose some if its effectiveness. This, in turn, could leave you unprotected against
typhoid.
