Hi doctor, My 3 yr old daughter started vomitting last nite at 1 pm till 3.30. she must have done atleast 6 to 8 times & hten started passing motion in her pants for atleast 5 to 6 times till nok. also complains of stomach ache. I gave her cyclopam medicine in the nite. but now what?
Thanks for asking your question at Chat Doctor. Your daughter probably has acute gastroenteritis. Give her ORS to prevent her from losing salt and water from her body. You may give her ODEM (ondansetron) syrup to control her vomiting. Unless I have her body weight I cannot give you the exact dose required for her. About the cause, I would suggest you not to bother at the moment. In most cases irrespective of your treating the cause, the vomiting and loose motion comes down in a few days. So if you are replenishing the fluids with ORS, stay relaxed. Hope that helps. Feel free to revert with further queries if any.
