Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Depo provera usually does not get affected with most of the antibiotics including Keflex. A single dose will not affect its efficacy as a contraceptive. You need not use any additional protection. you are still protected against pregnancy. No need to worry.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
