Hi, thanks for using Healthcare Magic.

I have read your query and understand your situation.

PURBAC double strength is an antibiotics combo that contains the active ingredients Sulfamethoxazole and Trimethoprim. This med usually used to treat various types of infections especially in respiratory tract, like pneumonia.

And it depends on the type of pneumonia that you have, some cases of it are caused by viruses, such as the cold or flu, rather than bacteria and, if that is the case, then this med will not help.

This drugs is totally safe and had less side effect.

Hope this information helps
Regards,
dr. Nurul Falah
