Question
My sister’s baby is 4 years old this year. Lately, the baby has been feeling unwell, often with a fever. When we went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said the baby has empyema meningitis. I want to know what medication is used for empyema meningitis?
Answer
The treatment primarily includes conventional treatment and medication control. Typically, treatment involves bed rest, enhanced nutrition, close monitoring of vital signs changes, and observation of mental state, pupil reaction, and serum electrolyte changes in the internal environment; medication control is crucial. This mainly involves antibiotic therapy. Early-stage treatment typically includes intravenous injection of antibiotics. With the advancement of diagnostic and treatment technology, currently, as long as we can diagnose and treat it in a timely and accurate manner, the baby can basically recover and be discharged from the hospital without any sequelae.
