With the desire to quickly recover from the disease and minimize the effects of dengue fever on health, many people who get sick often self-infuse in the hope that the disease will heal quickly. However is this true?

Many people wonder "can dengue fever be infused with water?" or “should dengue fever be infused with water?”. According to Dr. Tran Thi Phuong Thuy - Department of General Internal Medicine - Vinmec Times City International General Hospital, when you have dengue fever, you don't need an infusion. The most effective way to rehydrate people with dengue fever is to drink oreso l . In most cases, only oserol is needed to treat dengue. However, to be sure that you have dengue fever or not, the patient needs to be examined. There are also a few cases where patients are required to receive fluids and platelet transfusions.
To ensure safety, when having dengue fever, the patient must absolutely not self-transfuse at home. People with dengue fever in the recovery period will have blood dilution, so it will cause a multi-membrane effusion (pleural effusion, peritoneal effusion, etc.) if the transfusion is excessive. In the event of an infusion of fluids, medical supervision is required.
Currently, at Vinmec International General Hospital, emergency treatment and treatment of many cases of dengue fever with severe complications have been performed. Accordingly, the medical examination and treatment process at Vinmec is carried out methodically and intensively under the guidance of qualified and experienced doctors.
