Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thank you for asking your query on health care magic!
The problem which your wife is having is called gastroentritis. Gastroenteritis is an intestinal infection marked by diarrhea, severe abdominal cramps, nausea or vomiting, and sometimes fever. An episode of gastroenteritis takes almost 7 to 10 days to settle down. Electral( Enerzal, Vitcofol, Pyrimo )available over counter should be taken as much as possible to replenish the fluids and electrolytes lost in vomiting. The earlier the electrolytes are replenished,the faster would be recovery.Anti emetic like Peptobismol can be given twice daily along with Prilosec to provide symptomatic relief in vomiting and Gas.Give her a lot of orange juice,She can take banana or coconut water. In case if motions starts Racicadotryl capsules can be taken twice daily. Give her light food and keep your body hydrated. Apart from that there's often no specific medical treatment for viral gastroenteritis. Antibiotics aren't effective against viruses, and overusing them can contribute to the development of antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria.Its self limiting and will settle down by itself in 5 to 7 days.
Advice
Pantoprazole 40mg once a daily for gas and acidity.
OTC anti emetic Bismuth subsalicylate Pepto-Bismol twice daily for vomiting.
Cap Racicadotryl twice daily(on advice of gastroentrologist)in case motions start.
Electral one glass after every vomiting.
Probiotic like VSL#3 should be taken for 7 days to replenish the disturbed G.I flora.
