HI
Thanks for posting your query.
There are many different Antibiotics which can be given for Typhoid fever. The choice of antibiotics varies from doctor to doctor .
In my experience the Typhoid Bacteria has become very strong and the chance of cure with only one Antibiotic ( Macpod ) is less. If you were my patient I would have added another antibiotic like OFLOXACIN along with the prescription given to you.
Hope this information was useful to you.
Any clarification feel free to ask .
