Typhoid Fever Detection Test – Peace of Mind for ZAR 250
When you’re experiencing persistent fever, stomach pain, or digestive issues, it’s natural to worry about serious infections like typhoid fever. Our Salmonella Typhi and Salmonella Paratyphi A Antigen Detection Test provides the clarity and confidence you need, delivering same-day results for just ZAR 250. We understand the anxiety that comes with unexplained symptoms, which is why we’ve made reliable typhoid testing accessible across South Africa.
Understanding Your Typhoid Fever Test
This advanced test specifically detects the antigens of Salmonella Typhi and Salmonella Paratyphi A – the bacteria responsible for typhoid fever. Using immunochromatography technology, our test provides highly accurate results by identifying the presence of these dangerous pathogens in your system. The process is straightforward: we analyse either a small blood sample (2mL serum) or stool sample (2g) to determine if you’ve been infected with typhoid-causing bacteria.
Who Should Consider This Test?
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, this test could provide crucial answers:
- Persistent high fever that doesn’t respond to typical treatments
- Severe abdominal pain or discomfort
- Headaches, body aches, and general weakness
- Digestive issues including constipation or diarrhoea
- Rose-coloured spots on your chest or abdomen
- Recent travel to areas where typhoid is common
- Exposure to someone with confirmed typhoid fever
Early detection is particularly important for children, elderly individuals, and those with compromised immune systems.
Why Early Typhoid Detection Matters for Your Health
Getting tested promptly can make a significant difference in your recovery and prevent serious complications. Early detection allows for:
- Timely treatment with appropriate antibiotics
- Prevention of severe complications like intestinal bleeding or perforation
- Reduced risk of spreading infection to family members
- Faster recovery and return to normal activities
- Peace of mind knowing your exact condition
Without proper diagnosis and treatment, typhoid fever can become life-threatening, making this ZAR 250 investment in your health incredibly valuable.
