Can pneumonia cause high cardiac enzymes

Sometimes pneumonia can lead to elevated cardiac enzymes, mainly viral pneumonia, which can present with myocardial damage and elevated myosin enzymes. When a patient is diagnosed with pneumonia, the causative microorganism is evaluated. If the patient is suffering from bacterial pneumonia, treatment with antibiotics such as cefixime, cefuroxime, amoxicillin, azithromycin, levofloxacin, etc. is required. If the patient is suffering from pneumonia due to mycoplasma infection, the patient needs to be treated with medicines related to it such as roxithromycin, azithromycin, levofloxacin, moxifloxacin and so on. If the patient is due to viral infection, the patient needs to use antiviral drugs, such as oseltamivir, abidol, etc., and give symptomatic treatment at the same time. When the patient develops viral myocarditis, drugs that nourish the heart muscle can be used, and rest can be paid attention to at the same time.
