Bed rest and supportive treatment, especially to control hypertension (high blood pressure).

A calcium channel blocker, nimodipine, can be given to reduce the arteries in your brain going into spasm which further leads to more damage. Some surgical procedures such as clipping the aneurysm that caused the bleed or inserting a coil can be used to prevent a re-bleed.
