Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa's health condition "continues to improve" and the same line of treatment, including antibiotics and other clinical measures, is being continued, the Apollo hospital said today.
Chief Operating Officer of Apollo hospitals Subbiah Viswanathan said in a press release that "the same line of treatment is being continued. The honourable CM is under close observation by the team of doctors".
The Chief Minister, who is undergoing treatment, "continues to improve," he said, adding that she has been advised further stay in the hospital.
Yesterday, Viswanathan had said the treatment plan, including appropriate antibiotics, respiratory support and other allied clinical measures, was being continued to treat infection.
He had also said that she "is responding adequately to the comprehensive treatment".
On October 2, for the first time since she was hospitalised on September 22, the hospital had said the Chief Minister was being treated for "infection".
A bulletin from the hospital had said it had taken an expert opinion from a UK-based doctor who examined her and concurred with the present line of treatment.
The 68-year-old AIADMK supremo was admitted to the hospital after she complained of fever and dehydration.
