To evaluate the differences in clinical efficacy between continued azithromycin therapy and switching to tetracycline antibiotics (doxycycline/minocycline) in children with macrolide-unresponsive Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (MUMPP).
Children with MUMPP hospitalized in our hospital were divided into treatment group and control group according to the secondary antibiotic selection after ineffective initial macrolide treatment for 72 hours. The control group continued to receive azithromycin for injection at a dose of 10 mg·kg-1 once a day for a 7-day course of treatment. The treatment group was switched to oral tetracycline antibiotics: minocycline capsules at 2 mg·kg-1 twice a day, or doxycycline enteric-coated capsules at 2.2 mg·kg-1 twice a day, with a total course of 10 days. The time to defervescence, treatment effectiveness rate, and changes in white blood cell count (WBC), neutrophil percentage (NE%) and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels were compared between the two groups, and a safety evaluation was performed.
A total of 107 cases were included in this study, with 87 cases in the treatment group and 20 cases in the control group. The total clinical effective rates of the treatment group and the control group were 90.80% (79 cases /87 cases) and 85.00% (17 cases /20 cases), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05). The antipyretic time of the treatment group and the control group was (6.82±1.71) and (7.75±2.12) days, respectively, with statistically significant difference (P<0.05). Before conversion therapy, the white blood cell counts of the control group and the treatment group were (8.58±3.67) and (6.77±2.59) ×109·L-1, respectively, and the CRP levels were (14.44±8.58) and (26.43±26.53) mg·L-1, respectively; both differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The neutrophil percentages of the control group and the treatment group were (57.93±9.39)% and (62.43±10.79)%, respectively, the lymphocyte percentages were (32.43±8.46)% and (28.60±9.57)%, respectively, the monocyte percentages were (7.63±2.01)% and (7.43±2.53)%, respectively, none of these differences were statistically significant (all P>0.05). The total incidence of adverse drug reactions in the treatment group and the control group was 1.15% and 0, respectively, with no statistically significant difference (P>0.05).
For children with MUMPP, tetracycline antibiotics provide faster fever resolution, but the overall efficacy of both regimens is comparable. Clinical decisions should consider the child’s age (tetracyclines preferred for those ≥8 years) and parental informed consent. Continued azithromycin therapy is recommended in combination with glucocorticoids to control excessive inflammatory responses.
