What is the home remedy for pneumonia? is it contagious and can it be prevented?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I'm not aware: of an effective home remedy. See your doctor, if you have untreated pneumonia you are in a potentially dangerous situation. Antibiotics are orders of magnitude more effective.
