Test Necessity
The Widal test helps diagnose typhoid fever quickly, especially if you have symptoms like high fever, stomach pain, and rash. Early detection through this test can prevent severe complications such as kidney infections, heart muscle inflammation, and pneumonia. Without timely detection and treatment, the infection can lead to serious health issues, including psychiatric problems.
Test Preparation
No special preparations are needed before taking the Widal test. If you are on any medications, please make sure to inform your doctor about them. This is because some medications might alter the test results which can lead to inaccurate interpretation of the reports.
During the Widal Test
A phlebotomist will come to your door to collect your fasting blood sample, following all safety measures and protocols. The blood sample for the Widal test will be taken from a vein in your arm. The entire process takes just 3-5 minutes. This procedure is similar to other general blood tests and is conducted with strict aseptic precautions.

The highest dilution of the patient’s blood sample that provides a clear agglutination with the Widal test antigen suspensions is that of the antibody titre.
