Brief Answer:
Give the next dose half an hour before next feed

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

Emeset is right to be given in such a situation. The next dose should be given half an hour before the next feeding. If there is no further vomiting, I do not think that a further dose is required. In case of vomiting, you can give another dose after the episode of vomiting.

Hope that helps.
