I have my reservation on diagnisis and treatment. If it was uncomplicated Typhoid the first line of treatment is 3rd generation oral cephalosporin CEFEXIME not Azithomycin. Azithromycin is recommended in MDR cases. Well if your chikd is not running fever better stop all the medicines. Use of antibiotics should not be indescriminate. You have every right to ask your doctor regarding justification in use of antibiotics in case you or your child is suffering from fever. Remember most fevers in children are viral in nature and self limiting. Misuse of antibiotics is associated with emergence of antibiotic resistance untoward adverse side effects and increase in cost of treatment. Best wishes
