I have a fever that comes and goes, mostly in the evening, along with weakness. According to blood report, my SGPT level is 78. I would like to know what medicine I should take for typhoid and how to manage the elevated SGPT?

A raised SGPT indicates mild liver stress, which can happen in typhoid. Continue medicines as prescribed and rest well. If the fever continues beyond 7 days, follow up with your doctor. Continue the course of antibiotics, repeat LFT, after the prescribed course of treatment, to check if liver function has returned to normal or better
