Brief Answer:
PPI, Electral solution, monitoring blood Sugar, electrolytes, TPR BP.

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
Noted the history and understood the concerns.
If possible monitor the following:
Temperature, pulse, blood pressure and blood sugar.
Excessive vomiting can cause dehydration and electrolyte imbalance.
Drinking a lot also causes the blood sugar to get lowered.
Increases acidity.
Hence I would advise you the following:
Give her a PPI like Omeprazole or Pantoprazole or Ranitidine.
Give Electrolyte solution to replenish the fluid, electrolytes and sugar.
See if this help.
Monitor temperature, pulse, respiratory rate, blood pressure, blood sugar (TPR BP)
Else take her to Hospital or Er to avoid any complication.

I hope this answers your query and helps to take a proper step ahead.
Please give feedback.
