Suggest treatment for dengue fever, typhoid and pneumonia
Patient: Hi, my aunt is suffering with dengue fever, typhoid, kidney effect and pneumonia. Please let me know her condition. She is in ICU. Doctors in that hospital giving treatment to dengue alone. Is it enough . she is not in a state to move to big hospital. Please give any suggestions. Thanks & Regards, Bhanuja Doctor: HIThanks for posting your query to Healthcaremagic.    Very sorry to hear about your aunt . There is no specific treatment for dengue. Dengue may cause reduction is platelet count and if it goes to a very low level then Platelet transfusion has to be done. Sometimes dengue can cause breathing difficulties by causing fluid accumulation in lungs then treatment will be for that.     For Typhoid Antibiotics has to be given and I think if she is in ICU Antibiotics for sure will be given . Just enquire again. Sometimes single antibiotic can cover for both Pneumonia and Typhoid so you might have felt that they are not treating for Typhoid . If really no Antibiotics is being given then she should be started on Antibiotics IMMEDIATELY.     Hope this information was useful to you. Any clarifications feel free to ask .
