Hi..please reply for this query...my grand father aged 82, behaving differently... after an attack of typhoid....since 3 months....we are using alprazolam 0.5mg at bed time as he is disturbing others and is very irritable...the sedation persists till afternoon but he is talking nonsense and telling us to leave him alone on the road...otherwise he will attempt suicide itseems..
HiT hanks for using Chat Doctor May be this is post typhoid psychotic symptoms. In that case, he needs low dose antipsychotic that would help to control the symptoms. Better to consult a psychiatrist and get him properly evaluated. In case, you need further help, you can ask. Thanks
