Sometime, corticosteroids (powerful anti-inflammatory medicines) may be needed.
Expectations (prognosis):
The disease often goes away without treatment. If treatment is needed, the response is usually good. However, relapses can occur.Complications:
A rare complication of simple pulmonary eosinophilia is a severe type of pneumonia called acute idiopathic eosinophilic pneumonia.
