    Mycoplasma pneumonia in children is mainly used with drugs**, and commonly used drugs include antibiotics, cough suppressants, anti-infections, etc. 1.Antibiotics:

    If the child is in the early stages of the disease, appropriate antibiotics can reduce symptoms and shorten the duration of the disease. Macrolide antibiotics are preferred, with erythromycin, roxithromycin, and azithromycin commonly used. If macrolides are not sensitive, tetracyclines or respiratory fluoroquinolones may be used.

    Note: Tetracyclines should not be used in children under 8 years of age. Respiratory fluoroquinolones, such as levofloxacin and moxifloxacin, should not be used in children under 18 years of age.

    2.Cough suppressants: For children with severe cough, cough suppressants should be given appropriately, such as pediatric phlegm and cough granules and ambroxol oral liquid.

    3.Anti-infective. If there is co-infection, targeted antibiotics should be selected in combination with etiological examination**.

    If penicillin is susceptible to Streptococcus pneumoniae infection, penicillin or amoxicillin is preferred; For methicillin sensitivity to Staphylococcus aureus infection, oxacillin sodium or chloracillin is preferred. Mycoplasma pneumonia in children usually has a good prognosis, but it can also cause severe bilateral pneumonia, meningitis, myocarditis, and other serious conditions. Please go to the hospital in time for diagnosis and active ** under the guidance of a doctor.

    If a child has Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection, macrolide antibiotics and azithromycin may be used to fight the infection**. Mycoplasma pneumoniae is the causative agent of human mycoplasma pneumonia. The pathological changes of Mycoplasma pneumoniae are predominantly interstitial pneumonia, sometimes with bronchopneumonia.

    Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection can cause a small epidemic, so respiratory isolation must be taken into account. In autumn and winter, the room should be regularly opened for ventilation to keep the indoor air fresh and circulating. Also drink some warm water, and pay attention to eating some easily digestible nutrients in your diet.

    Outdoor activities can be carried out to enhance the body's immunity, improve respiratory movements, and improve respiratory function.

    Children with mycoplasma pneumonia deserve a comprehensive **. There are two main points.

    First, for mycoplasma, you can choose more sensitive drugs, mainly macrolides, commonly used azithromycin, erythromycin and bleomycin, mycoplasma is mainly azithromycin, because it has a long half-life, mainly for inflammation of the lungs. Erythromycin is basically a little higher in the blood. Azithromycin is concentrated in the lungs, so the effect is better.

    Second, it is symptomatic**, cough and phlegm. With expectorants, such as ambroxol oral liquid and compound Xianzhu oral liquid, if the child coughs up phlegm and the expectorant effect is poor, budesonide and terbutaline can be used for nebulization, which can reduce inflammation in the airways and help the child to expel.

    The infant antigen test is positive and does not have a fever, which can be done by antibiotics and other methods**.

    Baby pneumonia is mainly caused by pathogen infection and is the main cause of death in children, with symptoms such as fever, cough, shortness of breath, difficulty breathing, etc., which can be prevented by vaccination with pneumococcal vaccine and influenza vaccine. Babies who are positive for Mycoplasma pneumoniae do not have fever and may need to use a macrolide antibiotic**, but this needs to be managed according to the specific condition.

    When the baby is positive for Mycoplasma pneumoniae, it may be caused by Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection, which requires antibiotics**. However, Mycoplasma pneumoniae is naturally resistant to penicillin and cephalosporin, requiring macrolide antibiotics such as roxithromycin or azithromycin. However, it is also important to note that Mycoplasma pneumoniae may be false-positive and needs to be analyzed in the context of the patient's specific clinical characteristics, such as a common bacterial respiratory infection.

    In addition to macrolide antibiotics, amoxicillin, related antibiotics such as amoxicillin may also be considered.

    It is also possible that it is only a viral respiratory infection, and if it is a viral respiratory infection, it is usually a symptomatic cough suppressant**, such as a drug such as a pulmonary cough mixture**.

    If the baby is positive for Mycoplasma pneumoniae and does not have a fever, it should be noted that first of all, it is necessary to eat a light diet and avoid eating greasy food, because greasy food will hinder the transportation of the spleen and stomach, accumulate water, and produce phlegm, thereby aggravating the symptoms of coughing up sputum. Secondly, it is advisable to eat plenty of fresh vegetables and fruits and avoid spicy foods, as spicy foods are warm and help to heat up, which can exacerbate fever symptoms.

    Finally, drink plenty of warm water, and it is advisable to eat more bitter and cold foods such as bitter gourd, chicory, and bitter vegetables. This helps with sweating and relieving fever. Bitter cold has the effect of clearing away heat and is beneficial to fever symptoms.

For upper respiratory tract infections, it is usually about 1 week, while for the lower respiratory tract, i.e., acute bronchitis or pneumonia, the course of treatment takes 2-3 weeks, otherwise mycoplasma infections are prone to recurrence.

    2. Symptomatic**:

    1. Cough and phlegm: Mycoplasma infection is often accompanied by a more severe cough, so it should be carried out for children's cough. The respiratory tract also produces secretions, and cough and phlegm drugs such as strong loquat dew and ambroxol hydrochloride oral solution can be used.

    If necessary, drugs such as acetylcysteine can be inhaled by nebulization to dilute the sputum, and then by patting the back or suctioning sputum to promote the discharge of sputum, thereby helping to control mycoplasma infection;

    2. Oxygen therapy: For M. pneumoniae infection in children, if there are symptoms of hypoxia, oxygen therapy should be carried out in time. Depending on the degree of hypoxia in the child, oxygen is given or by means of artificial mechanical assistance;

    3. Nutritional myocardium**: Mycoplasma infection in children, especially when mycoplasma pneumonia occurs, it is easy to be complicated by myocarditis, and myocardial enzymes are significantly elevated at this time. Therefore, if it is complicated by myocarditis, it is necessary to use drugs that nourish the myocardium in time, such as trimetazidine, coenzyme Q10, potassium and magnesium aspartate tablets, etc., and rest more, so as not to increase the burden on the heart;

    4. Application of hormones: If it is severe mycoplasma pneumonia, in addition to the above-mentioned **, the disease develops rapidly, and there may be atelectasis, bronchiectasis, pulmonary interstitial fibrosis, or children with extrapulmonary complications, may also need to use adrenal corticosteroids such as dexamethasone and prednisone.

    In addition, Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection may cause a small epidemic, and the time after the onset of the disease in children is longer, and the respiratory tract should be isolated in children with mycoplasma infection or close contact history. In the event of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection, parents should take their children to the hospital for treatment in time and take reasonable measures under the guidance of doctors. Parents should pay attention to the feeding method of their children at ordinary times, and pay attention to keeping warm to avoid pneumonia in children.

    Effective antibiotics** can shorten the duration of the disease, reduce symptoms, and reduce the occurrence of complications. If the pathogen is not completely eliminated and cannot be completely removed, the disease is more likely to occur, and Mycoplasma pneumoniae can even be isolated from the respiratory secretions of the child for several months, thus becoming a spreader of infection.

    (1) Respiratory isolation: because mycoplasma infection can cause a small epidemic, and the time of excreting mycoplasma after the disease of children is long, up to 1 2 months long, only the symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection in infancy. Pneumonia occurs only after superinfection.

    At the same time, it is easy to be reinfected with other viruses during MP infection, resulting in aggravation of the disease and prolongation of the disease, so the respiratory tract should be isolated as much as possible for children or children with a history of close contact to prevent reinfection and cross-infection.

    2) Nursing: Rest, nursing and diet should be emphasized. If necessary, small amounts of antipyretics may be taken, and traditional Chinese medicine may be taken (see Bronchitis).

    3) Oxygen therapy: Oxygen should be given in time for those with severe hypoxia or severe airway obstruction. The method is the same as for general pneumonia.
