Itching after typhoid treatment could be a side effect or an allergic reaction to the medicines your mother is taking.

🩺 Possible Cause of Itching

Severe body itching may result from an allergic reaction to the antibiotics or other drugs used in typhoid treatment. Some medicines can cause skin irritation or histamine release leading to itching.

🩺 Need for Medication Review

It is important not to change or stop any medicines without consulting the prescribing doctor. They can evaluate if the itching is related to the current treatment and decide if a medication change is necessary.

🏥 Symptomatic Relief

• Use cool compresses or take lukewarm baths to soothe the skin.
• Keep skin moisturized with gentle, fragrance-free lotions.
• Avoid scratching to prevent skin damage and infection.
• Over-the-counter antihistamines like fexofenadine (Allegra) may help but should be taken only after doctor’s advice.
