The best treatment for thyphoid fever is agbo. The one time I was diagnosed of it, I was given medications but I wasn’t fully ok until I used agbo prepared by myself. Pawpaw leaves, lime, orange, pineapple, neem leaves. And I felt better within days of taking it. Since then, no signs of it.
Your friend has taken way too much antibiotics which in itself is a problem. He should take a break of a week or two not using anything then prepare the agbo. And take that for about 2 weeks then stop. He should thereafter take a month dose of probiotics to replenish his bacteria population that he lost taking antibiotics. Thank me later

The guy doesn't have typhoid. Most doctors frequently wrongly make diagnosis of typhoid. You can't make that diagnosis with just one serum test of salmonella typhi antibody titre. Post the serial results here. Let him do a stool analysis and culture. If he has an active typhoid disease, there will be salmonella typhi and it's ova in the stool. He needs to be thoroughly investigated. He needs to visit a teaching hospital. Nairaland and online consultation really doesn't help.
Nb: typhoid is not a common disease. We have abused antibiotics a lot. Especially the fluoroquinolones, reason for the high incidence of kidney related issues in our society today.

He has consumed too much Antibiotics already.. Let him try eating healthy lots of Vegetables and Water and resting alot.

Give it like a month, if it persists, Take to a general hospital. Seems you are his PA

Fairfora, take this advice

In addition:. He needs to detoxing...typhoid drugs are strong and I guess he wasn't eating much when taking the medication
My best guess is it's probably the high dosage of drugs that's having an effect on him

He should resists from taking any drugs whatsoever for at least a month...and consume large sum of vegetables and he should eat regularly as at when due

Hello nairalanders. I have this colleague who was always sleeping in the office around july. He often complained of muscle and joint pain with dizziness and pain in his eyes and both sides of his head. Sometimes, he would be complaining of slight headache and abdominal pain.

I asked that some test be run by him, including an XYZ just to be sure. He did all that and all was negative except typhoid which was inherent in the diagnostic report with negligible malaria. He was placed on a broad spectrum ciprofloxacin. He was feeling relieved after which the symptoms came back.

He went back to the clinic and was placed on Zinax, a higher antibiotics. 2 weeks later, the symptoms came back again and this time, the dr asked him to repeat the test and still repeat the XYZ. As usual all came out negative except thyphoid. This time, he was placed on augmentine. In short, he completed the recommended dose barely 2 weeks ago and symptoms have returned as I speak . Yesterday, I asked that the test be repeated for the 3rd time same as usual. Please medics, pharms and traditional medics in the house, what drug can he use to get rid of this stubborn bacteria?

A key element is missing here, probably you were not told or chose to leave it out.... Did they carry out antibiotic susceptibility test on the Salmonella typhi strain the colleague has in his system?
If No, then complete diagnosis was not done and you're probably treating with the wrong antibiotic.
On the other hand, if that was done, then the strain of the organism your colleague is carrying is already multi-drug resistant.
First advice is to stay off antibiotics for a while, take natural products (agbo from correct source, not streetside concoctions), plus take lots of fermented product (especially probiotic yoghurt to help reduce the Salmonella typhi load and boost the immune system's response).
Then the antibiotic can be taken alongside the previous two listed above (antibiotic should be taken after stool MCS, i.e. microscopy, culture and antibiotic sensitivity, has been done by a lab. This will tell what organisms are really causing havoc and the course of antibiotics to use).
Wish him speedy recovery.

I need to help you brother. I suffered from typhoid bro for over 5 years. Started since 2013 and thank God i am okay now. I hope this can work for you. I used different types of antibiotics bro. Hospitals here and there. It got to a time i started boiling water. I was very pale and I was not enjoying my life. Series of drips and medications. I almost died bro back then in 2015 at Unilag hostel when i went there for some things To cut the long story short. I dont know if you have heard of Aqua Tabs. I have one here with me and i still drink from it. I hope it works for you. God knows this is not some sort of advert. I suffered a lot from typhoid and i dont wish my enemy to go through that let alone a friend. Please let me know if you are interested and i would put you through on how to get one. Still, i dont eat out but i can't remember the last time I took antibiotics bro!
Thanks alot. Pls i wouldn't mind. I needed help and that's why I came here. He often sleeps in the office and its affecting his job. I'd have him contact u

I am an alternative medicine practitioner in Ghana the home of herbal medicine in Africa . Your colleague apparently has Multidrug-resistant typhoid otherwise called "extremely drug resistant typhoid" and honestly there is nothing conventional medicine can do for him regarding treatment. This strain of typhoid became very common around the 1980s and has spread quickly.

The best bet for treatment is herbal and i have what you need. Your colleague will be fine after my treatment, this i guarantee.

If you wish to discuss further just let me know. Thank you

Pls do advice him to take herbs...the combination of unripe paw paw, pineapple, tealeaf, cashew leaf and the back, mango leaf and back of the tree all cooked together for 1hr plus and drink the water 4 like 3-5 days. Ask those market women for more ingredients on typhoid.

I don't usually support traditional medicine because of our tendency to abuse it or just wrongful sourcing. But to be honest, some ailments especially where western medicine has failed, it only makes sense to try the alternative before too much damage is done.

I know how typhoid fever can be persistent. I don't know if it's because of re-infection or resistance to drugs. Like someone also mentioned, fake drugs may be the culprit or wrong diagnosis. I think OP's boss should try another good lab for a more thorough test, make sure to get his drugs at a trusted pharmacy by himself, drink only trusted bottle water or even start boiling his own water at home, stop eating outside and so on. Eating healthy will also be very beneficial.

If all above conditions have already been met and he still has this issue, abeg get the correct agbo. May God grant him good health. This too shall pass.

this fake drugs of a thing is now becoming so serious. My mum was down like 2 weeks ago, she started treating typhoid and malaria, normally, but she was still sick, only for me to finally take her to see her personal doctor and the man saw the fake malaria drug lonart Ds and almost fainted. Gave my mum another drug immediately the next day she was fit. I don't know what this our government is doing anymore.

Thank God for your mum.
But really, self medication is not good. When you feel I'll, the doctor is the first person to talk to, not the chemist/nurse in your area

My personal experience after taking medication I felt better but not totally relieved so I opted for herbal remedy which comprises mango, guava, lemon, neem, pappaw, lemongrass leaf plus lemon. After boiling I drink a cup and wash off my body after bath and allow it to dry for three days and my system just reset back to default
