        abstract = {Dengue fever, a mosquito-borne viral disease, is a major global health concern, particularly in tropical and subtropical regions. It is transmitted primarily by Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes and caused by four Dengue virus serotypes (DENV-1 to DENV-4). The disease presents with a spectrum of symptoms, ranging from mild fever to severe complications such as Dengue Shock Syndrome (DSS) and Dengue Hemorrhagic Fever (DHF). Since no specific antiviral treatment exists, supportive care, including fluid resuscitation and symptomatic relief, remains the primary management approach.  
Dengue pathology is characterized by thrombocytopenia, immune dysregulation, and endothelial dysfunction, which worsen disease severity. The review explores different therapeutic approaches, including allopathic, Ayurvedic, and homeopathic treatments. While NSAIDs are contraindicated due to bleeding risks, allopathic management relies on paracetamol and intravenous fluids. Ayurvedic remedies such as giloy, papaya leaf extract, and basil leaves are used to enhance immunity and platelet recovery, while homeopathy is explored as an adjunct therapy.  
Preventive measures like vector control, insecticide spraying, elimination of breeding sites, and personal protection are critical for reducing disease spread. Public awareness initiatives, larvicide use, and surveillance is essential for effective dengue management. Given the increasing prevalence of dengue due to urbanization and climate change, an integrated approach combining modern medicine, traditional therapies, and public health strategies is necessary to mitigate its impact.},
