Hello dear user!
Welcome to HCM!

Yes vomiting is one of the most common side effect of Biaxin.
You haven't mentioned what your husband has taken Biaxin for but you he may take Ranitidin or Domperidone to diminish side effect of biacin and stop the vomiting. If the situation is not supportable he should stop taking the medication and consult the doctor.

Kind regards!
Dr Eriol.
