Brief Answer:
Please go in to ER.

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome,

If you are throwing up blood, please go in to the ER now. The bleeding may be from irritation/broken blood vessel from previous vomiting tonight in which case it isn't as dangerous, but regardless, if you there is blood, go in to be seen promptly.

I don't think any of your medications are necessarily the cause, but you may have a bleeding ulcer.

I'd be happy to provide more information after you go in, but please do go in now.
