What Causes Vomiting During The Sleep?

My 20 month old son keeps falling asleep then throwing up multiple times of when hes sleeping, sometimes only once. Accrues during his nap time and bed time . When he throws up he is sleeping, sometimes awake, when he is done he passes out in a deep sleep. I took him to the doctors she thought it was his appendix so I got blood work and x-rays done, they came up fine nothing wrong. He doesn t want to eat he drinks a little and hes losing alot of weight.

Hello. Thanks for asking Healthcare Magic. Your son might have infection of the stomach i.e gastritis. I would suggest to start with ondasetron 2mg/5ml. 5ml three times a day on empty stomach and an antibiotic like norfloxacin 100mg/5ml. 5ml two times a day. Oral rehydrating solution in small sips throughout the day. Also dont make him sleep immediately after food. I am sure this would help. Thanks and Regards.
