Typhoid Antibiotic Guidance:** 1. First-Line Treatment Options:**    - Cefixime 400mg** (preferred over amoxicillin in many regions due to resistance patterns)    - Azithromycin** (alternative for uncomplicated cases)    - Ciprofloxacin** (where resistance isn't prevalent) 2. Critical Considerations:**    - Never self-medicate** for typhoid - improper treatment can lead to complications or chronic carriage    - Diagnostic confirmation** is essential (blood culture/Widal test)    - Allergy alert:** Since you're allergic to paracetamol, fever management alternatives include:      * Tepid sponging      * Mefenamic acid (if no contraindications)      * Adequate hydration 3. When Hospitalization May Be Needed:**    - High fever persisting >72 hours    - Signs of complications (intestinal bleeding, altered consciousness)    - Severe vomiting/dehydration Next Steps:** 1. **Immediate:**    - Get proper diagnostic testing    - Maintain oral rehydration    - Monitor temperature pattern 2. **Professional Evaluation Required:**    - Treatment duration typically needs 10-14 days    - Follow-up testing to confirm clearance    - Monitoring for complications **Important Warning:** Typhoid requires careful antibiotic selection based on: - Local resistance patterns - Disease severity - Your medical history For proper management, please consult immediately.
