What Causes Child To Vomit Immediately After Giving Amoxicillin?
I gave my 7 year old amoxicillin (liquid form). She immediately vomited it right back up. So I gave her another dose which she immediately vomited again, this time with other stomach contents. She doesn t usually gag or vomit. Should I see if I can get her on another medicine?

Hi..I think she is averse to the taste of that particular brand you are using. Why don't you change the brand and try giving the medicine again. Many a time in my personal practice and at home with my kid too, I had success by changing the brand and we will be lucky if the kid likes it.
