Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ?  Please type your query here... My son was prescribed Predcort for and Klaracid.  It was also recommended that he takes the Ventolin Inhaler for a week.   We were told that he has an ear infection that was never cleared up which subsequently lead to the throat infection.  He also had a very heavy cough and the doctors advised that he has an early stage of Pnemounia.   How can I help to ensure that the Pnemounia is properly treated and the infection is cleared up?   Can I bathe him daily and is the fan and aircondition o.k. or should i discontinue until he is fan?  What should I do?   Also are there any steroids in  prednisolone?
Hello I understand your concern. You explain that pneumonia is in the beginning, if yes Klaritromic is the proper treatment. Prednisolone in see is a cortisone medication. It helps in chronic ear infection and in pneumonia too lowering the swelling of the airways. As a result the cough will be better and the ear infection too. Air condition is not so well recommended in pneumonia caused. From a specific bacterial agent but in Community squared pneumonia there is no against facts. So I wish good health for your SoftBank you Chat Doctor.
