Chlamydia pneumoniae positive indicates current or previous infection with Chlamydia pneumoniae. If the patient only tests positive for Chlamydia pneumoniae and has no obvious respiratory symptoms, it is generally untreated. If the patient tests positive for Chlamydia pneumoniae and has only mild cough symptoms, it can be gradually cured without treatment in a few weeks. If the patient is chlamydia pneumoniae positive and has obvious fever, chills, myalgia, dry cough, chest pain and cough symptoms, it is considered that the patient is infected with chlamydia pneumonia at this stage and needs to be treated with drugs. The most common drugs are erythromycin and other macrolide antibiotics, but also doxycycline, clarithromycin, azithromycin, etc. Chlamydia pneumoniae is also sensitive to quinolones. Adults and patients older than or equal to 18 years old can also use ofloxacin, norfloxacin and other anti-chlamydia pneumoniae drugs for anti-infection treatment. The course of antibiotics must be sufficient to prevent recurrence. Liver function should be monitored during medication. The above scheme is for reference only. Please use the drug according to the drug instructions or according to the doctor's advice in a regular hospital.
