Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Lactulose is a non-absorbable sugar mainly used in the treatment of constipation.
Some advice that I can give to you about the treatment are:
-take buscopan 10 mg three times a day for abdominal pain
-take reglan10 mg for the vomiting and nausea
-eat a plain diet
-drink a lot of liquids

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
