Depends on cause: Hyperbilirubinemia can be the result of inflammatory conditions affecting the liver, genetic hepatic abnormalities like gilbert's syndrome and others, breakdown of red blood cells in the bloodstream, drugs, etc. Before entering into the question of treatment one must first determine the source of the increased bilirubin levels. Best of luck.
