A fever with a platelet count of 88,000 and a negative dengue test suggests a possible bacterial infection, for which ceftriaxone (C-One) can be an appropriate treatment.
Low platelets (thrombocytopenia) with fever can occur in various infections, not just dengue. Since your dengue test is negative, bacterial causes might be considered, and ceftriaxone is a broad-spectrum antibiotic effective against many bacterial infections.
Ceftriaxone (C-One) is a cephalosporin antibiotic used to treat a wide range of bacterial infections, including respiratory, urinary tract, and other systemic infections. It works by killing bacteria and is commonly prescribed when bacterial infection is suspected.
It is important to follow up with your prescribing doctor or an infectious disease specialist to ensure the treatment is effective and to investigate other causes if symptoms do not improve.To narrow down potential causes, we will need some more information.I understand you're concerned about your fever and low platelet count, especially with a negative dengue test. You're also wondering if the ceftriaxone (C-One) is the right treatment. Please tell me your age and gender.
