What Is Vasculitis?
10. Treatment
There is no cure for vasculitis and the treatment cannot be cured. However, medication is available that will help to manage the condition. This will typically involve anti-inflammatory medication to help reduce inflammation, and to help prevent it from flaring up again.
Other medications used can include those that will help to manage blood pressure. Medications that will help to prevent blood clots may also be used in some cases. There may also be a need to treat the symptoms of organ failure and other complications. Surgery will also sometimes be deemed necessary, including surgery to help treat an aneurysm.
