Duricef and Keflex are related. Duricef is a newer analog of the older Keflex.
The first line for urinary tract issues is Septra/Bactrim. If you can tolerate sulfonamides and are not allergic you can try this.
There is an older drug called methenamine (Urex) but some doctors are not familiar with it.
