Discussion of treatments for Typhoid fever:
If you suspect you have typhoid fever, see a doctor immediately.
If you are traveling in a foreign country, you can usually call
the U.S. consulate for a list of recommended doctors.
You will probably be given an antibiotic to treat the disease.
Three commonly prescribed antibiotics are ampicillin, trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole,
and ciprofloxacin. Persons given antibiotics usually begin to
feel better within 2 to 3 days, and deaths rarely occur. However,
persons who do not get treatment may continue to have fever for
weeks or months, and as many as 20% may die from complications
of the infection.
Typhoid
fever's danger doesn't end when symptoms disappear
Even if your symptoms seem to go away, you may still be carrying
S. Typhi. If so, the illness could return, or you could
pass the disease to other people. In fact, if you work at a job
where you handle food or care for small children, you may be barred
legally from going back to work until a doctor has determined
that you no longer carry any typhoid bacteria.
If you are being treated for typhoid fever, it is important to
do the following:
Keep taking the prescribed antibiotics for as long as the doctor
has asked you to take them.
Wash your hands carefully with soap and water after using the
bathroom, and do not prepare or serve food for other people. This
will lower
the chance that you will pass the infection on to someone else.
Have your doctor perform a series of stool cultures to ensure
that no S. typhi bacteria remain in your body. (Source: excerpt from Typhoid Fever (General): DBMD)
