Dengue Treatment
Because Dengue hemorrhagic fever is caused by a virus for which
there is no known cure or vaccine, the only treatment is to treat the
symptoms.
Rehydration with intravenous (IV) fluids is often necessary to treat
dehydration.
IV fluids and electrolytes are also used to correct electrolyte
imbalances.
A transfusion of fresh blood or platelets can correct bleeding
problems.
Oxygen therapy may be needed to treat abnormally low blood
oxygen.
