What causes simple eosinophilic pneumonia?
Parasites: These are very small living creatures that grow, live, and feed within your body. Parasites, such as round worms and hookworms, are common causes of Loffler syndrome. They move from one part of your body to another during the stages of their life. Lung problems occur when your body tries to fight these parasites when they are moving into your lungs. Medicines: Loffler syndrome may happen as an allergic-like reaction to some medicines that you have used for weeks or months. These may include medicines used to treat pain, seizures, heart problems, or infections. It may also occur with the use of street drugs, such as heroin or cocaine. Unknown: Sometimes there is no clear cause for getting this condition.
