Question
How long does it take to cure neonatal scurvy?
Answer
Neonatal sepsis necessitates the use of antibiotics prior to obtaining blood culture results. Subsequently, antibiotics are chosen based on the blood culture results and bacterial drug sensitivity tests. Typically, a combination of a penicillin class and an aminoglycoside antibiotic is used as the initial choice of medication. This combination offers a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity and synergistic effects. In cases of severe infection, the use of third-generation cephalosporins in combination with penicillin may be considered.
