Summary

This study looks at whether adding vitamin C to standard hospital treatment helps children under 5 with severe pneumonia recover more quickly. 90 children will be split into two groups: one gets standard care (oxygen and antibiotics), and the other gets standard care plus daily vitamin C. Researchers will compare how long each group stays in the hospital to see if vitamin C makes a difference.
