Hi welcome to the health care magic
You have been treated with good drug that is effective again typhoid bacilli is cefixime..
If cefixime resistant present than azithromycin needed
You have been treated with both this drug Hence your typhoid might be cleared well from body
If needed stool culture can be done to check carrier status
Antibiotic course given for 7 to 14 days
Meanwhile small meal taken with frequent interval and fruit juice taken more
Take more fluids regularly
Take care
Hope your concern solved
