What Are Klebsiella Pneumoniae?
9. When Should You Seek Medical Care?
If you think you may have a Klebsiella pneumoniae infection, contact your healthcare provider right away to schedule an appointment. Infections can progress rapidly, so starting treatment early is critical to success. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience chest pain, shortness of breath or trouble breathing associated with pneumonia.
You should always take all of your medication exactly as it was prescribed. If your symptoms do not improve, you may have a resistant strain. Contact your doctor to discuss other antibiotics that might be more effective.
