I'm a bit worried about my Widal test results. I got S. typhi O 180, S. typhi H 140, and the others at 120. Does this mean I have an infection or something?

Sucrafil solution and Sucrafil O gel solution are not the same.

Sucrafil solution is likely an oral suspension, whereas Sucrafil O gel solution is a topical gel formulation for oral ulcers.

Using the wrong formulation may not provide the intended benefits and could potentially cause harm.

Return to the pharmacy and request the correct Sucrafil O gel solution. If unavailable, consult your doctor for alternative arrangements.

I've got a question about the rabies vaccine. So, I had the full rabipur course back in November and December 2019. But then I got exposed again in February 2020 from a dog lick and took booster dosesone on February 4th, another on February 28th, then March 28th, and the last one on April 27th. Now, I'm worried about how long I'm actually protected. If I have another incident like a bite or a lick in the future, what should I do? Can you give me some guidance on this?

Once u complete all your doses

I'm really worried because a rat bit me 45 days ago on my finger and I haven't gotten a rabies shot or a tetanus injection yet. Is it dangerous to start the vaccinations now after so much time has passed? Should I be concerned about any symptoms or complications?

its always better to vaccinate before 48hrs

I'm just curious about how reliable the HIV rapid test is at the six-month mark, like after 180 days. Can you share if it's considered conclusive by then?

No it's not confirmatory, it's screening test, confirmatory test would be ELISA.
