Typhoid medicine

2020-02-03 14:07:34
I had Widal test done recently and as per the reports Salmonella typhi O was reactive upto titre 1:80 and Salmonella typhi H was reactive upto titre 1:40 so my doctor told me that there is slight typhoid and medicines prescribed were: Tab ceftas 400mg, tab azithromycin 500mg and Tab Please (40mg) for 14 days. Now I am unable to find out Tab Please (40mg). I dont have the salt name too. Can I take anyother medicine instead of this one? Please recommend one to go along with the other two tablets. Thanks

Hi. Do you still have fever. Widal is not positive it's not suggestive of enteric fever Ceftas is cefipime. U should repeat widal after 1 week. Or meet a physician.
