Doctors use antibiotics to treat hospital-based pneumonia. Your doctor will probably give you an antibiotic that kills many different bacteria (wide-spectrum) immediately, before he or she can identify the type of bacteria causing the infection. Once your doctor knows the specific type of bacteria, he or she may change your antibiotic to target it.
