What is the treatment for Guillain-Barré Syndrome?
In most cases, hospitalization with supportive care and monitoring of all vital functions is required. Most patients with Guillain-Barré Syndrome are treated with plasmapheresis (blood plasma exchange) or immunoglobulin. About 70% of patients respond to one of these treatments. In some cases, spontaneous improvements may occur. Rehabilitation may be required to regain lost functions.
