My brother has typhoid, but the doctor prescribed me Tab Cifran 250, Tab Dolo 650, and Tab Becosules. I feel these tablets may not be proper. Can I take these tablets? My blood report shows Salmonella typhi O: 1:160, Salmonella typhi H: 1:160, Salmonella paratyphi AH: 1:20, and Salmonella paratyphi BH: 1:20. What precautions should be taken?

These are often given as prophylaxis or if mild infection suspected. If you are asymptomatic, treatment may not be necessary unless advised based on your Widal or symptoms.

Sir, in my Widal test report S Typhi O is written 1:160 positive and others Typhi H, Typhi AH, and Typhi BH are negative. What does it mean? From which disease am I suffering?
