Patient's question:
My son has had a cough for over a month. He is fine at night when sleeping and doesn't have a fever. He started taking Azithromycin for 5 days, then switched to traditional Chinese medicine. Last week, he was diagnosed with Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection (1,160). He took Azithromycin for 5 days but still has a cough. Should he continue the injections? He has no allergies or family medical history. Should he continue with injections or switch to medication?Doctor's answer:
In this case, if it is a mycoplasma infection, I suggest you do not use azithromycin. Because azithromycin, you have already used it for five days, and using it again will definitely cause many side effects to your body. You can use many other anti-inflammatory drugs and focus on intravenous treatment. The effect of taking medicine will definitely not be very significant. The above is advice on the question "How to treat mycoplasma infection?", hoping it helps you, wish you health!
