Antibiotics Reduce Pneumonia Mortality
Patients who receive recommended antibiotics are less likely to die of the disease, according to a study published in the American Journal of Medicine. The risk of death declined by two-thirds for those given the recommended treatment within 48 hours of admission.
The study also found that those given the treatment were half as likely to die of pneumonia within 24 hours of admission.
