For empiric treatment of uncomplicated typhoid fever, the IAP recommends cefixime and, as a second-line agent, azithromycin. For complicated typhoid fever, they recommend ceftriaxone. ... In the United States, it is still used specifically for S typhi infection.

Drink lot of water. The drug has no proven scientific evidence that it will cause the stones to pass so try and avoid medication as they may damage yohr kidneys. Drink lot of fluids, avoid onion, Palak, and tomato as they are rich in oxalates. You can use Kulthi daal water for drinking and it usually has the beneficial effects on passing out the kidney stone

Hii, cefuroxime+ clavulanic acid (cefakind cv) causing breathing difficulty as a side effect is very very rare. It has never documented so far. But we will see into it. Do you have any nose block, cough when you developed ear infection? A little more information is needed for better assessment.

Going by the reports, you need to treat both simultaneously and avoid coitus till future samples from both of you show no growth on culture. Treatment from your physician with a drug from the most sensitive to antibiotic group for sufficient duration is mandatory.

During pregnancy many medications are not safe but paracetamol 1 gm as and when needed with antisickness tablets like prochloperazine can be helpful. Ensure plenty of fluids. Very severe cases can be treated with greater occipital nerve block injection during pregnancy. Very rarely, sumatriptan can be used to treat migraine in pregnancy.
