Patient's question:
Does pediatric pneumonia necessarily require intravenous drip? For this type of illness, how should I treat it?Doctor's answer:
When infantile pneumonia is not severe, oral medication can be used for treatment, supplemented with inhalation through a nebulizer. Generally, it is not recommended to use intravenous therapy if the condition is not severe. You can give the baby Xiao Er Qing Fei Liang Xue (Infantile Clear Lung and Cool Blood). This should be combined with oral Azithromycin. You can also take Jiao Hong Keli (Orange Red Granules) and combine it with Amoxicillin treatment. If the baby is wheezing severely, you can take Montelukast Chewable Tablets to relieve asthma and alleviate severe pain in the urethral smooth muscles.
