What Causes Hives On The Chest After Intake Of Cephalexin?
My husband took Cephalexin 500 prescribed by our dentist for a tooth. Now he is getting hives on his chest and neck and face. He woke this morning with a swollen eye. He is not allergic to penicillin. What can we do? His blood pressure is up this morning I had him take some Benadryl last night.
