My doctor diagnosed me with typhoid. Prescribed cefika-s for 5 days, twice a day. I have completed my course today. But, since yesterday, I am facing issues as if, I have caught cold. Runny nose, slight headache, inside of throat swelling and like. Is it because of the side effects of the medication or is it just common cold? After taking antibiotics for last 5 days (cefika-s), do I need to take some other antibiotics for these indications? Please help.
