Thai Princess Bajrakitiyabha Narendira Debyavati is being treated for low blood pressure and a severe infection in the bloodstream, the Bureau of the Royal Household said.

The 46-year-old princess, the oldest of King Maha Vajiralongkorn’s seven children, is being administered medications to increase her blood pressure along with antibiotics, the bureau said in a statement on Tuesday. It was the second health update on the princess issued by the palace in less than a week.
