More info needed: Are you referring to the pneumonia vaccinations or are you referring to an actual pneumonia infection? Amoxicillin may be the right treatment, but the patient may have a viral pneumonia or bronchitis process which may not be helped with an antibiotic. Please discuss with your doctor.
