Question

A 23-day-old newborn has developed nasal congestion after pneumonia treatment, and the parents are inquiring whether it is safe to administer Cefaclor capsules.

Answer

A 23-day-old newborn who experienced nasal congestion following pneumonia treatment may have fever due to catching a cold. Cefaclor capsules are used to treat bacterial infections, while fever is often a symptom of viral infection. It is recommended to give the baby warm water and to take oral fever-reducing and cooling capsules or wind-cold fever capsules, one quarter of a packet each time, twice a day. If the symptoms do not improve after two days of treatment, it is advisable to go to the hospital for a detailed examination and treatment. In this case, it is not recommended to immediately administer Cefaclor. Please note to keep warm.
