Hello
Typhoid fever is a disease caused BY SALMONELLA and this is an intestinal disease
All there are 4 strains of this salmonella .
If your daughter is not having any fever , need not to admit her in hospital , she will recover within short period .
If fever present the drug of choice is ciprofloxacin 500 mg twice in day for 14 days .
Other drug is injection ceftrizone 1 gm twice in day for 10 days .
Both drugs are most potent and effective.
Once fever is under control need not to worry .
As Widal test will come NEGATIVE after 6 month of stopping of treatment because carriers remain in intestine and don't produces any symptoms .
So no need of any tension.
Consult a physician for this prescription, if needed.
