Prevention Tips

Dengue spreads through mosquito bites. Simple daily habits at home can greatly reduce your risk.

Remove Standing Water

Empty pots, coolers, buckets and containers regularly — mosquitoes breed in still water.

Apply Mosquito Repellent

Use repellents on exposed skin, particularly in the mornings and evenings.

Wear Full-Sleeved Clothing

Light-colored, full-sleeved clothes reduce exposed skin and bite risk.

Keep Surroundings Clean

Clear leaf litter, drains and rooftops that can collect rainwater.

Use Mosquito Nets & Screens

Cover windows and sleep under nets, especially during dawn and dusk hours.

Support Community Efforts

Join local fumigation and cleanliness drives during peak dengue season.

Next steps

If You're Diagnosed

Most dengue cases can be managed with rest and monitoring, but it's important to follow these steps closely.

Drink plenty of fluids — water, oral rehydration solution, or coconut water.

Monitor your temperature and symptoms

Keep a record of fever pattern and watch for any warning signs listed above.

Avoid certain medications

Do not take aspirin, ibuprofen, or other medicines without medical advice, as some medicines can increase bleeding risk. Consult a qualified healthcare professional.

Follow up with regular blood tests

Platelet counts should be monitored as directed by your physician until fully recovered.
