Question
What are the treatment methods for neonatal pneumonia?
Answer
The treatment for neonatal pneumonia mainly depends on the type and severity of the condition. For bacterial pneumonia, doctors will use antibiotics for treatment. Since antibiotics are ineffective against viral pneumonia, treatment may be limited to rest and hydration. It is very important to ensure that infants receive adequate fluids, as this can help them combat dehydration caused by shortness of breath and fever.
