Typhoid fever is treated with antibiotics that kill the Salmonella bacteria. Without treatment with antibiotics the fatality rate is 20%. Death occurs from overwhelming infection, pneumonia, intestinal bleeding, or intestinal perforation. With antibiotics and supportive care, mortality is reduced to 1%-2%.
Several antibiotics are effective for the treatment of typhoid fever. Chloramphenicol was the original drug of choice for many years. Because of rare serious side effects, chloramphenicol has been replaced by other effective antibiotics. Ciprofloxacin (Cipro), ampicillin (Omnipen, Polycillin, Principen), and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (Bactrim, Septra) are frequently prescribed antibiotics.
You can heal this by; the goal of treatment is to replace fluids and (salt andminerals) lost by diarrhea. Antidiarrheal medications are generally not given because they may help the infection. You should drink electrolyte solutions (saltwater) to replace fluids lost by diarrhea . Persons with diarrhea who are can't drink anything by mouth due to nausea may need medical attention and intravenous fluids. This is especially true for small children. Fever and aches can be treated with acetaminophen or ibuprofen.
Make sure to drink water because some of the symptoms (diarrhea) can cause dehydration. Try to eat normally because most believe that helps it pass faster. If it is severe enough case, one should go to a doctor to get antibiotics.
The best treatment is to replace fluids using an electrolyte solution such as diaoralyte, ie some salt and sugar in water.
Anti-motility drugs are best avoided.
There is no benefit from the use of antibiotics in food poisoning from salmonella.
In situations where an individual has a more severe type of infection with Salmonella bacteria,.antibiotics may be used. Chloramphenicol.Ampicillin and trimethoprim-sulfonamide.A number of alternative treatments.Juice therapy.Charcoal tablets.
salmonella typhi can cause Typhoid fever a disease.
Since Salmonella is a bacterium, the disease it causes is treated with antibiotics

The cauative agent for typhoid is Salmonella typhi
The scientific name for the typhoid fever bacteria is Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi.
Salmonella Typhi AH is also known as Paratyphoid fever. This is an illness.
humans in countries where the water is contaminated with sewege, which can sometimes contain salmonella typhi.
Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi. (Also called Salmonella Typhi or abbreviated to S. Typhi)This bacterium is the causative agent of typhoid fever. Although typhoid fever is not widespread in the United States, it is very common in under-developed countries, and causes a serious, often fatal disease. The symptoms of typhoid fever include nausea, vomiting, fever and death. Unlike the other Salmonelladiscussed below, S. Typhi can only infect humans, and no other host has been identified. The main source of S. Typhi infection is from swallowing infected water. Food may also be contaminated with S. Typhi, if it is washed or irrigated with contaminated water.Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (Also called Salmonella Typhimurium or abbreviated to S.Typhimurium)Until recently the most common cause of food poisoning by Salmonella species was due to S. Typhimurium. As its name suggests, it causes a typhoid-like disease in mice. In humans S. Typhimurium does not cause as severe disease as S.Typhi, and is not normally fatal. The disease is characterized by diarrhea, abdominal cramps, vomiting and nausea, and generally lasts up to 7 days. Unfortunately, in immunocompromized people, that is the elderly, young, or people with depressed immune systems, Salmonella infections are often fatal if they are not treated with antibiotics.
