Hello,
I hope your child is currently feeling better.
The medicine that she is taking is alright.
Fever in case of typhoid tapers down slowly and gradually. Do not worry about it.
Low appetite and weight loss is common with typhoid!
Take care of the child's nutrition. Complete cure will take minimum of two weeks.
Wishing her a speedy recovery !
