AOA.
first of all, not all cough and flu is pneumonia. since how many days does he have symptoms?
has any
doctor given you diagnosis of pneumonia? does he have difficulty breathing? have you had any chest X ray done?
it's not advisable to keep changing antibiotics without any reason.
it requires physical examination in the form of listening the chest with a stethoscope
