See doctor: There is no medicine which will increase the platelets if you don't treat the cause - the infection - first. Your friend needs to see a qualified doctor asap and get started on antibiotics for the malaria and supportive medicines for the dengue.

Treat the parasites: The platelet count may resolve after treatment. If bleeding occur from low platelet, platelet transfusion will be okay. Other types of low platelet like itp can respond to predinosone or danazole.
