How To Treat Gastric Problem In Kids?

My 8 yr old has gastro for over 54 hrs now. She's still not able to keep anything in even pedialyte. She throws it up 10 minutes later. She's been taking Gravol liquid but as soon as she eats a cracker it comes out a bit later. She sleeps most of the time, no energy. The diarhea is gone now but she hasn't had any solid food since it started.
