Pneumonia treatments will vary depending on the type of pneumonia and how severe the symptoms are. Bacterial pneumonias are commonly treated with rest and plenty of fluids. Fungal pneumonias are usually treated with antifungal medications.
Over-the-counter medications are commonly prescribed to better manage pneumonia symptoms. These include treatments for reducing fever, aches and pains and cough suppressants. It is also vital to ensure that your ill child gets lots of sleep.

Hospitalisation for pneumonia may be required if symptoms are severe, a patient has a weakened immune system or another serious illness. At the hospital, patients generally are treated with intravenous antibiotics and possibly put on oxygen.
