Brief Answer:
Wait for few hours

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Most of times such old products cause gastric upset and lead to vomiting or loose stools. It is not serious if the baby does not show any signs of allergy like fever, red rashes on body etc.

Since you have given Domstal wait for 2 to 3 hours after the dose. Once the vomiting stops give her the mother's milk.

If the vomiting continues or increases in frequency then do rush to the hospital.

Hope, I answered your query.

Wish you good health.

She has stopped vomiting, can we continue mother milk as before. Domstal should be continued or stopped.
should i through away the product? Ofcourse we do...
in her last vomiting she vomited a very small amount of yellow in color, was that zincovit given before 12 hours? Will that be in stomache after 12 hours also? Or what it could be? Is that okay?

Brief Answer:
Give her mother's milk

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Yes, you can feed her with mother's milk. Stop domstal and give only if she vomits. Lets the time duration between second dose be more than 4 hours.

Yes, do throw away the product.


I doubt Zincovit being in stomach for 12 hours. But yes, in children it can happen. It could be bile reflux from the duodenum due to forceful contraction of the stomach while vomiting.

Need not worry, observe for further vomiting.
