HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Typhoid would cause a fever but would not cause cough and cold symptoms. It would be associated with diarrhea, loss of appetite in addition to aches and pains, headache and fatigue.

You can use over the counter cough and cold medications to help with your symptoms.
Paracetamol would help with the fever and any aches and pain.

The typhoid medication would not be appropriate for the cold.
I hope this helps
