How to deal with fever still after azithromycin infusion

Patients with mycoplasma pneumonia who have fever despite azithromycin infusion may require further medical attention to adjust their treatment due to unsatisfactory response or other complications.

Azithromycin is a commonly used drug to treat mycoplasma pneumonia, but not all patients respond well to the drug. If you still have symptoms such as fever despite azithromycin infusion, you may not be responding well to the drug or are resistant. At this point, you should see your doctor right away, and your doctor may adjust your medications, such as switching to a different macrolide or fluoroquinolone.

On the other hand, fever can also be a symptom of complications or other diseases. For example, mycoplasma pneumonia may be complicated by pneumoniae streptococcal pneumonia, and these complications require appropriate anti-infective therapy. If the fever persists, you should also seek medical attention as soon as possible for a detailed examination and diagnosis so that possible complications can be detected and treated in time.

During the treatment period, patients should do symptomatic treatment and self-care according to the doctor's guidance, including rest, diet and maintaining good lifestyle habits to help the body recover. At the same time, it is necessary to follow the doctor's instructions, have regular check-ups, and observe the changes in the condition and drug reaction to ensure the treatment effect. All medications should be used under the guidance of a doctor.
