Posted on Wed, 2 Dec 2015
Question: Dear Doctor XXXXXXX
Further to confirmation of Typhoid for my wife (35), our family doctor has recommended following medication. I just wanted to share to get your second opinion on the same.
Tab Zipod-200 (2 tabs/ day as antibiotic)
Tab Rinifall (2 tabs/day for mouth ulcer)
Tab Rabckind DSR (1 tab/ day as antacid)
Candid mouth gel (3 times/day)
Oraways gel (1 time/day at night)
(Mouth ulcer is deep which is causing tremendous difficulty in eating and even speaking).

Thanks doctor.

Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX
The treatment given to your wife is very good. However I prefer to give two antibiotics for this purpose. I would recommend adding Azithromycin for this purpose to the current regimen suggested by your doctor.
