Hi,

* As per my clinical experience, ofloxacin (Tacoma) has best results in typhoid fever.
* You may have certain temperature spikes during recovery, but continue the dosage only as per doctor`s guidelines.
* Additional measures to recover faster

- Drink more liquids, preferably boiled water, lemon juice, coconut water, homemade juices.
- Prefer a bland, vegan diet.
- Avoid all spices, nonveg, junk foods, dairy fat.
- Avoid smoking or alcohol if using.
- Manage adequate rest and sleep.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
