Overview
There are no established guidelines for secondary prevention of typhoid fever. However, early diagnosis and prompt and adequate treatment—including the administration of antibiotics, good nursing care, maintenance of fluid electrolyte balance, adequate nutrition,[1] steroids in severe cases,[2] and cholecystectomy—may help prevent development of the chronic carrier state.[3]
Secondary prevention
There are no established guidelines for secondary prevention of typhoid fever. However, the following strategies may help reduce progression of the disease and prevent complications in affected individuals:[1][2][3][4]
- Early diagnosis and prompt treatment with the appropriate antibiotics
- Good nursing care, including maintenance of a healthy fluid electrolyte balance
- Adequate nutrition
- Steroid administration if appropriate
- Cholecystctomy if necessary to prevent the chronic carrier state
