Often patients are concerned about the question why, while taking antibiotics for pleuropneumonia, the temperature does not drop: can this indicate the development of complications? With pleuropneumonia, temperature indicators usually range from 37-38 ° C. Against the background of antibiotic therapy, a high temperature can be maintained for 2-3 days, and with a bilateral pathological process - up to 10-14 days (at the same time, the mark of 38 ° C is not exceeded).
