Suggest Treatment For Vomiting In A Child
Hi doctor, My 9 year old son had vomiting yesterday for about 10 times. The doctor gave him an injection of emeset. She also said two hours after the injection, the vomiting should stop and we must give him 400 ml of all liquid foods like water with little salt and sugar, glucon d etc..in little quantities over this two hour period. We did give him and there was no vomiting for next 5 hours and after that he vomited once. Since he is sleeping now, we could not give him more liquids. Will he be ok after he gets up or will he require trips.
