What Causes Nausea And Vomiting After Having Cephalexin?

use zofran suppositories or tablets
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing to healthcare magic.
We will go through the drugs one by one.
1. Cephalexin can be given and usually needs to be given at a high dose for skin infections. Least possible to cause severe vomiting among the three . So continue.
2. Motrin is ibuprofen which is very well known to cause gastritis. Try skipping a few doses to see if vomiting settles.
3. Bactrim can cause nausea and vomiting. But benefits are more than the risks. So you need to continue. But if she becomes drowsy, or altered sensorium, or extensive skin rash or blood in urine , etc stop it. Otherwise continue.
For vomiting give her zofran suppository or tablet 4 mg thrice a day before food.
That should help.
Ensure she takes electrolytes solution like pedialyte to keep her hydrated.
Wishing her speedy recovery.
Regards
Dr Arun
