Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Pulmonary function. Timepoint: The Primary outcomes will be measured at two points before starting the treatment and after the treatment ends. Method of measurement: Pulmonary function will be assessed through digital spirometer (FEV1, FVC, FEV1/FVC).;Disease Severity. Timepoint: The Primary outcomes will be measured at two points before starting the treatment and after the treatment ends. Method of measurement: disease severity through Pneumonia Severity index, and Modified Borg scale.
