DESCRIPTION
Cephalexin Capsules, USP is a semisynthetic cephalosporin antibiotic

acid monohydrate.
Cephalexin has the molecular formula C
H
N
O
S•H
O and the molecular weight is 365.41.
Cephalexin has the following structural formula:
The nucleus of cephalexin is related to that of other cephalosporin
antibiotics. The compound is a
zwitterion; ie, the molecule contains both a basic and an acidic
group. The isoelectric point of
cephalexin in water is approximately 4.5 to 5.
The crystalline form of cephalexin which is available is a
monohydrate. It is a white crystalline solid
having a bitter taste. Solubility in water is low at room temperature;
1 or 2 mg/mL may be dissolved
readily, but higher concentrations are obtained with increasing
difficulty.
The cephalosporins differ from penicillins in the structure of the
bicyclic ring system. Cephalexin has a
_D_-phenylglycyl group as substituent at the 7-amino position and an
unsubstituted methyl group at the 3-
position.
Each capsule contains cephalexin monohydrate equivalent to 250 mg (720
μmol) or 500 mg (1,439
μmol) of cephalexin. The capsules also contain colloidal silicon
dioxide, D & C Yellow No. 10, FD &
C Blue No. 2, gelatin, magnesium stearate, sodium starch glycolate,
