Like many other viral infections, the main treatment is supportive care like fluid, oxygen, ect. There are antiviral medications, but they are normally not effective in viral pneumonia. Viral pneumonia can progress to bacterial pneumonia because the bacteria takes advantage of the fact that you're already compromised. In this case, antibiotic should help.

The most effective way to treat viral pneumonia is with an antiviral medication. If you do not take the medication, pneumonia could turn into something worse.
