Patient's question:
Can pneumonia caused by a cold be treated with Cephalexin capsules?Doctor's answer:
Pneumonia is mainly caused by streptococcal infection, which can lead to symptoms such as fever, cough, and phlegm cough. If you are not allergic to cephalosporin antibiotics, you can take them. It is recommended that you pay attention to keeping warm and avoiding catching a cold, while also using lung-clearing and blood-cooling herbal medicines for treatment. Monitor your body temperature regularly. In addition to cough, phlegm, and high fever, pneumonia requires systematic and appropriate symptomatic treatment. It is still advisable to use medications under the guidance of a doctor.
