Hello and welcome to HealthcareMagic!
For viral gastroenteritis symptomatic management is done.
1) Along with Ondansetron also take antacid drug like Rabeprazole.
2) Avoid gastric irritants like excess spicy foods, smoking and stress.
3) Drink lots of water
4) Increase intake of fruit juice
Hope this helps. If no improvement, stool examination and USG abdomen need to be done.
Take care
