An 11 year old girl presented with remittent fever for 1 month and abdominal pain for 4 days. On examination, she had tachycardia, tender hepatomegaly and pallor. Investigations showed:

Hemoglobin 9.4 g/dL
White Blood Cell Count 8,600/μL
Neutrophils 59%
Lymphocytes 38%
Eosinophils 3%
Platelet Count 282,000/μL
Widal Test (O) 02:00
Widal Test (H) 05:00
Blood Culture Salmonella typhi (sensitive to ceftriaxone)
She was treated with Injections Ceftriaxone (100 mg/kg/day) but the fever did not respond even after 5 days of antibiotics in spite of giving sensitive antibiotics.
Should the antibiotics be changed?
