Cephalexin（Cat No.:A001152）is a first-generation cephalosporin antibiotic used to treat a variety of bacterial infections, including respiratory tract infections, skin infections, and urinary tract infections. It works by inhibiting bacterial cell wall synthesis, leading to cell lysis and death. Cephalexin is effective against both Gram-positive and some Gram-negative bacteria. Known for its broad-spectrum activity and good tolerability, it is commonly prescribed for outpatient treatments. High-purity cephalexin ensures reliable and effective antibacterial activity, making it a valuable choice in both clinical and pharmaceutical settings for managing bacterial infections.
