I'm trying to figure out if it's better to take ursodeoxycholic acid and silybon 70 before or after eating. Also, how many times should I be taking them each day? Feeling a bit unsure here.

A Widal test titer of 1:180 indicates a positive result for typhoid.

Severity is determined by symptoms, not just the test result.

Consult your doctor for guidance.

Precautions: Rest, hydration, and good hygiene.

Avoid: Rawundercooked foods, unpasteurized dairy, and untreated water.

Take antibiotics as prescribed by your doctor.
