What is the best antibiotic for pneumonia?

There is no specific best antimicrobial drug for pneumonia, in the treatment process, it is necessary to choose the best drug for pathogenic bacteria to treat, and do not blindly believe in particularly broad-spectrum, especially expensive antibacterial drugs, because these drugs are often prepared for special and serious infections, which may cause the occurrence of drug resistance, which will lead to very difficult treatment in the future.

Confirmed pneumonia can be treated according to the cause of the pneumonia, and if pneumonia is caused by a viral infection, antiviral therapy is usually used, such as acyclovir. If it is bacterial pneumonia, some antibiotics can be used, such as cefixime.

The treatment of pneumonia can also assist in supportive treatment such as cough suppressant, phlegm, asthma, and rehydration. Mycoplasma pneumonia is a primary form of pneumonia caused by Mycoplasma pneumoniae, which is more common in infants and young children, and the treatment measures are roughly the same as that of general pneumonia. At the same time, comprehensive treatment measures are adopted, including antibiotic therapy, general adrenocorticosteroid therapy, and prevention of complications.

Pneumonia not caused by infection includes chemical pneumonitis, radiation pneumonitis, hypersensitivity pneumonitis, etc., which are inhaled by patients with chemical gases and liquids, respectively. During radiation therapy to the chest, lung damage is caused. Symptoms of pneumonia caused by exposure to their allergens are present.

Pneumonia is not a serious disease. As long as you find the symptoms, you need to go to a regular hospital in time, and there is no major problem.If left unchecked, there is a certain probability of irreversible damage to the lungs. Therefore, it is recommended that you go to the hospital in time when you find symptoms, and the longer it drags on, the greater the harm to your body.

The above drugs should be used according to the doctor's instructions, and should not be used indiscriminately to avoid adverse reactions caused by drugs.
