For the treatment of mycoplasma pneumonia, azithromycin can be used, because azithromycin can treat mycoplasma, but because of some people or some regions, when mycoplasma infection is not diagnosed, azithromycin is used more often, or when the patient has fever, cough, sputum or nasal congestion, runny nose, sneezing, throat discomfort in the past, he often takes azithromycin without the consent of the doctor, which can easily lead to mycoplasma resistance to azithromycin.

That is to say, some people often use azithromycin, which leads to mycoplasma resistance to azithromycin, so when it is diagnosed as mycoplasma pneumonia, some people use azithromycin, which is ineffective, and other drugs can be changed for treatment at this time, such as quinolone antibiotics such as moxifloxacin, levofloxacin and other drug treatment.
