HI
Well come to HCM
if you are taking medicine on your own then this is not advisable without clinical examination by the physician and with proper test, you can not decide for Typhoid fever, better to get done the serum Widal test, but important is clinical examination and clinical diagnosis, taking antibiotic in this manner may be harmful, take care.
I find this answer helpful
