Dear Dr. Six months ago, my daughter had Typhoid fever and it recurred starting this month. She is 3 years old and We have consulted the pediatrician and completed the prescribed course, further Dr. suggested for vaccine to avoid recurrences.  Now I want to know the best available vaccine (in Indian market) for childrens and is she at the suitable age to vaccine? or how long we have to wait to vaccine her after completing the Dr. prescribed course? And what about the side effects? Thanks for your suggestions,
HiT hanks for askingBased on your query my opinion is1. Typhoid vaccine is available in oral and injectable forms.2. It can be administered safely without much side effects.3. You can wait for fifteen days after completion of treatment to get your child vaccinated4. Besides vaccinating her you need to maintain hygienic practices at home and school as a preschooler she needs to know the benefits of washing hands before having food.5. Also look for typhoid carriers in your household as she is getting infected repeatedly. Hope this helpsRegards
