Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi
As you child is having diarrhea also the vomitings are due to gastritis. You can give one antiemetic in prescribed dosage to stop vomotings and antacid drug after consulting your Pediatrician. To prevent dehydration give sips of oral rehydrating solutions and consult your doctor for further advise.
