Although no specific cure has been found for UB, steps can be taken to reduce its symptoms and severity.
If UB is a symptom of an underlying disease or disorder, treatment of the disease itself can reduce the severity of UB and may eradicate it completely. This was seen in patients with [[Moyamoya disease]] who had bilateral frontal lobe infractions which resulted in UB. Upon treatment, the UB was resolved due to 60–70% shrinkage of the [[anterior lobe]] hypodensities. <ref name="Archibald">Archibald, S. J., Mateer, C. A., & Kerns, K. A. (2001).
