Is mycoplasma pneumoniae infection in children necessarily intravenous?

Patient's question:

The child is three years old. Two days ago, they started having a fever. The test results show Mycoplasma infection. I would like to ask if it is okay to take Azithromycin orally? Is it necessary to receive intravenous drip?

Doctor's answer:

First, you can take your child to see a doctor for an in-person diagnosis in a timely manner. It's best to re-examine for mycoplasma. Second, you can receive intravenous treatment at the hospital with medications such as azithromycin, which still has a good effect on mycoplasma infection.
