Suggest Treatment For Fever, Chills And Vomiting

My husband has had two attacks of fever, chills, vomiting and direia. He got over the attack on Sunday by going to bed and taking one sulfameth/trimethoprim 800/160mg. TB. It was given to him in Dec 2014. He alscohad a very bad attack of what we thought was food poisoning. Later we found the results indicated negative. Could this be liver or some other organ problem. He has had his gall bladder removed in the early 2000's. Can you give me any possible reasons for these attacks all of a sudden

As you are suffering from high grade fever with chills and vomiting it is pointing mostly towards Malaria so first of all I will advice you to go for CBC with MP to rule out the diagnosis. If malaria is negative than it is viral fever nothing more than that. Treatment for the same is tab Zifi-CV or tab Zipod-CV twice daily after meals with tab akilos-p or tab nimeson-p twice daily after meals for fever and body-ache with cap pantop-dsr or cap rabson-dsr twice daily empty stomach for vomiting. You can do a course of chloroquine 250 mg base 4 tab stat than 2 tab stat after 6-8 hours than 2 tab stat once daily for next 2 consecutive days after meals preferably with milk. If feeling very weak than you can take some multivitamin like syrup zincovit or syrup multicherry 2 tsf twice daily. Don't worry you will be fine soon.
