I'm really worried about my brother. He got diagnosed with Typhoid because his fever just wouldn't go down, and it turns out his Typhoid level is pretty high at 162. He's been on medication since Thursday, and today is Monday, but the fever hasn't completely disappeared yet. During the day, the temperature seems normal, but in the evening or afternoon, it shoots up to 99. I'm trying to figure out how many more days it's going to take for this fever to totally go away. Is this normal? I read somewhere that Typhoid fever can take about 15 days to subside entirely is that true? Today marks the 5th day he's on the medication for Typhoid. He's taking Enteromycetin 250 capsules three times a day and omnacortil 5, also three times daily. Does this medication sound right, or could it be that it's not strong enough, and that's why it's taking longer? Could you please help out and let me know what you think?

Typically, tablets are swallowed with water. However, some tablets, like sublingual or orally disintegrating tablets, are designed to melt in the mouth. Check the medication label or packaging insert for specific instructions. If unsure, consult your healthcare provider to avoid incorrect administration. Your doctor or pharmacist can provide personalized guidance.

I've just gotten over typhoid and I'm out of the hospital now, but I'm still feeling super weak, especially from my chest down to my stomach. It's a really noticeable kind of weakness. Can you help me understand why this might be happening?
It's common to feel weakness after recovering from typhoid, especially in the chest and stomach area, as your body is still healing. The infection and treatment can take a toll on your energy levels, and it may take some time for your strength to fully return. Rest, proper nutrition, and hydration will help support your recovery.

I've been getting a fever at night after feeling cold for the past couple of days, but it seems to go away by morning. Is this something I should be worried about? What could be causing it? Would love to get some insight into what's going on.
You may be experiencing viral syndrome, or developing a viral fever. If your fever is high grade (above 100 degrees Fahrenheit), and associated with chills, you may need to undergo a blood test to rule out diseases like malaria and denggue. Drink plenty of fluids and take sufficient rest.
