  I am currently on Keflex for a UTI at 6w3d pregnant and my pharmacist said it was safe for pregnancy.

  hey, I wouldn't stress too much, lots of people have taken meds before they knew they were pregnant, but maybe check in with your doc just to be safe! 

                                                                                        

  here's what the 'Heal Baby Care App' says....      

                                                                                        

  "It's understandable to feel concerned about medication taken during early pregnancy. Keflex (cephalexin) is generally considered safe during pregnancy, as it is a category B drug, meaning no evidence of harm has been found in studies. However, it's always best to discuss any medications taken during conception with your healthcare provider for personalized advice. Have you had any specific symptoms or concerns since starting your pregnancy?"
