Can Emetrol Control Continued Throwing Up After Drinking A Lot?
Drank a lot last night and threw up but since 3am have not been able to keep anything down - Crackers, Pedialyte, Water, Broth w. Rice. Everything comes back up. I'm concerned about fluid loss and the fact that I can't keep anything down. Is taking Emetrol worth it - I'm worried I won't even keep that down.

Hello,
Binge alcoholism has resulted in acute gastritis and repeated vomitings can result in dehydration.Even if you take some oral medicine,you may not be able to retain it.
The best is to go to ER and get intravenous fluids along with intravenous anti emetics and proton pump inhibitors.This would solve your problem.
Thanks
