Cause Effect Treatment Prevention History Notes MLA Treatment for Mononucleosis There really is no medication for mononucleosis. What is important is too do the following:
 * Getting plenty of rest.
 * Gargling with salt water or using throat lozenges to soothe your sore throat.
 * Taking acetaminophen (such as Tylenol) or ibuprofen (such as Advil) to reduce fever and relieve a sore throat and headaches.
 * Avoiding contact sports and heavy lifting to reduce the risk of injuring your spleen

Without treatment, most people recover from mono after a few weeks. In some severe cases it will take several months to regain your full strength. In severe cases, corticosteriods may be used to reduce swelling of the throat, tonsils, or spleen. This type of steroid use may also decrease the overall length and severity of illness from infectious mono.
