Patient's question:
Male, 1 month illness/symptoms: PneumoniaCondition description: My baby is 12 days old. A slight pneumonia was detected during examination. The baby was treated in the hospital for one week, using Cefotiam and Cefazolin. How many days will it take to recover?
Doctor's answer:
Hello. Childhood pneumonia requires timely treatment. Avoid the condition from worsening and leading to severe pneumonia. The specific duration of treatment depends on the condition. However, medication should be used reasonably.You mentioned using two types of cephalosporin drugs. This is not reasonable. It is recommended to adjust the medication.
Follow-up question: The first four days involved cefotiam hexetil injections, and the following three days involved two different cephalosporin drugs. Yesterday afternoon, pantoprazole was also administered. Your medication regimen is not very reasonable. Cephalosporin drugs should not be used simultaneously in two different types. Additionally, cephalosporin drugs are generally not used in combination with penicillin drugs.
