Pediatrician,  's  Response
Thanks for asking your question at HealthCareMagic. Your daughter probably has acute gastroenteritis. Give her ORS to prevent her from losing salt and water from her body. You may give her Ondem (ondansertron) syrup to control her vomiting. Unless I have her body weight I cannot give your 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 back with further queries if any.
