Typhoid Impression(widal report) TO- 1:320 TH-1:80 Report is showing +ive. Few questions: Is it too much or just crossed the line? What's the best antibiotic that can be given? Ceftraxon 3 mg?? How much time it will take to get cured? After initial few days can we get patient discharged? We have to travel(domestic) back to home after 10 days, any concerns? Is this contiguous? I know it's a long list..any help would be appreciated. Thanks

As per the result the levels are more. But widal is nonspecific. Rising titers of widal test are more singnificant and blood culture to detect typhoid bacilli is ideal. Ceftriaxone 1g 2-3 times a day is generally prefered antibiotic at least for 7 days. And then depending on the clinical condition of the patient and other blood test further treatment can be planned Generally spreads through outside food and water intake
