Suggest Treatment For Whooping Pneumonia
I am 63 5'7"and 198 pounds, and have been diagnosed with, as the nurse practitioner told me, a "whopping case of pneumonia." I'm on my second day taking levofloxicin and using ventolin HFA. I think my fever has broken ..it was 102.5 for a long time, but now I can't stop facial and body sweating. I'm changing nightgowns hourly. Is this something to call my doctor about.

Hi thanks for contacting HCM...
Noted you have pneumonia and taking levoflixacin for it...
Continue using drug without worry.
Your sweating could be by drugs you are taking ....
Healthy and balanced diet taken for early improvement in pneumonia...
Fruit juice like orange juice taken more.
Avoid smoking exposure active as well as passively....
Keep away from dust and environmental pollutions....
Plantain leaf help in soothing irritated respiratory tract and decrease mucous production....
Oregano capsule Helpful for respiratory tract....
Take care.
