Abstract:
The objectives of this Crosse sectional e analysis study is to gauge the clinical profile and pattern of varied medication employed in the treatment of infectious disease. A retrospective analysis of medicine patients littered with infectious disease was done at Department of Pediatric, Dhaka Shishu (Children) Hospital, and Dhaka throughout the year 2017-2018. Designation of patients was supported clinical options, agglutination test and blood culture.

Third generation antibiotic (ceftriaxone) alone were employed in ten patients. Indiscriminate use of medication in infectious disease ought to be discouraged. Acceptable antibiotic as indicated by sensitivity tests ought to use to forestall the event of resistant strains of S. typhi.
