Hi thanks for contacting HCM...

Noted your mother diagnosed with typhoid...
As condition seems severe with loss of apatite she is given injectable ceftriaxone .
This injection given for 3 to 5 days minimum..
Then oral cefixime like drug given for 10 to 14 days...

Meanwhile give her fruit juice more...
Give her small meat at frequent interval...
Non veg and junk foods avoided.
Heavy meal avoided.....
Maintain her hydration...
Protein diet like milk and egg white beneficial....boiled chicken also can be given..
Spicy and fried food kept limited....

Regular follow up done...

Take care...

Don't worry....
