Contrary to common belief,no restrictions in the diet are advised now for typhoid fever.
Ensure a healthy balanced diet and plenty of fluids.
No,fever must be reduced as quickly as possible.
Remember to give typhoid vaccine after 4 weeks of completed treatment.
Also,as typhoid fever is spread through contaminated water or food,ensure safe drinking water and food.
