What does this test check?
The Widal test screens for antibodies against the typhoid bacteria — a quick, affordable first-line test when fever has lasted several days, especially with abdominal discomfort or loss of appetite.
For more definitive answers, a comprehensive typhoid profile (₹2,000) including newer antibody tests is also available; our team can advise which suits your fever duration.
