Hi
I would advise the following.
1. Admission to hospital under general surgeon.
2. IV fluid therapy depending upon the need.
3. Antibiotic specific to typhoid.
4. Supportive care till bilirubin levels start falling.
5. Soft bland diet rich in carbs but low in protein and fats.
6.Close monitoring of blood investigations
Regards
