Dear Doctor, My nephew aged 13 years has typhoid fever and the lab report is as under: 1/20 1/40 1/80 1/160 1/320 Typho + + + - - Typhi H + + + + - Typhi AH - - - - - Typhi BH - - - - - The doctor has prescibed Zandcin 200 (ofloxacin), Vizylac and Clavulanate to be taken twice a day. How long will it take to be cured completely? Do we have to augment the medicines with some vitamins like supradyn (A and B) etc and also please tell us about the diet regimen to be followed? Thanks and regards
It takes around 10 days for the fever to settle. Yes you can give multivitamin. There is no special diet, you can give all types of food.
