There is no definitive treatment for Nipah encephalitis apart from supportive measures. These are mechanical ventilation and prevention of secondary infection.
Ribavirin, an antiviral drug, was tested in the Malaysian outbreak, and the results were encouraging, though further studies are still needed.
