The severity of this disease frequently warrants hospitalization. Admission to the intensive care unit is often necessary for supportive care (for aggressive fluid management, ventilation, renal replacement therapy and inotropic support), particularly in the case of multiple organ failure. Treatment includes removal or draining of the source of infection—often a tampon—and draining of abscesses. Outcomes are poorer in patients who do not have the source of infection removed. Antibiotic treatment should cover both S. pyogenes and S. aureus. This may include a combination of cephalosporins, penicillins or vancomycin. The addition of clindamycin or gentamicin reduces<unk>  production and mortality. In some cases doctors will prescribe other treatments such as blood pressure medications (to stabilize blood pressure if it is to low), dialysis, oxygen mask( to stabilize oxygen levels), and sometimes a ventilator. These will sometimes be used to help treat side affects of contracting<unk> .
