Infectious Diseases Specialist 's  Response
Hello,
I understand your concern.
I am Dr. Arun Tank, infectious diseases specialist, answering your query.

In my opinion you should continue with the women's Horlicks. There is no harm in taking it.

You can take either tab. Cifran or oflox. Taking both is not essential.

In typhoid high protein diet and fat free diet is adviced. Never dump intestine with heavy eating. It can cause a perforation in typhoid ulcer. Taking a small but frequent diet is adviced. Also do not eat spicy foods.


I will be happy to answer your further concern, you can ask me on bit.ly/DrArun.
Thank you.
