Acute eosinophilic pneumonia is a rare type of pneumonia caused by an increase in the number of eosinophils, a type of white blood cell, in the lungs. Symptoms of acute eosinophilic pneumonia include fever, cough, shortness of breath, chest pain, and fatigue. Treatment typically involves corticosteroids and antibiotics.

The symptoms of Acute Eosinophilic Pneumonia include:

-Fever

The exact cause of acute eosinophilic pneumonia is unknown. However, it is believed to be triggered by an allergic reaction to certain substances, such as dust, pollen, mold, animal dander, or certain medications. Other possible causes include viral or bacterial infections, exposure to certain chemicals, or a reaction to a drug.

The main treatment for acute eosinophilic pneumonia is corticosteroid therapy. This involves taking a course of oral corticosteroids, such as prednisone, for several weeks. Other treatments may include antibiotics to treat any underlying infection, bronchodilators to help open the airways, and oxygen therapy to help improve breathing. In some cases, a doctor may also recommend immunosuppressant drugs to reduce inflammation.

1. Exposure to certain chemicals, such as chlorine, sulfur dioxide, and ammonia

3. Exposure to certain environmental allergens, such as dust mites, mold, and pet dander
4. Smoking
5. Recent viral infection
