Brief Answer:
Need not worry

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Need not worry, karvol plus contains eucalyptus oil which is very volatile and converts into fumes and escapes via burps or passes via farts. These may cause mild gastric irritation and sometimes cause vomiting.

Yes, you can take Duphalac.

You said you are on predmet a steroid, hope it was prescribed for a reason.
