Can We Give Zofran And Claritan For Sinus Problems As 8 Year Old Throwing Up?

I have an 8 year old son who has started throwing up at night after he has laid down to sleep. We think it is sinus drainage as our 3 year old just went thru this same thing over Christmas. Is there anything else we can do for him (or her) if she starts again other than Zofran and Claritan?

Hello,
Welcome to health care magic
Since your child is throwing up you need to give her antiemetic first to stop vomiting. For sinusitis you can give oral and nasal decongestants under ur doctors guidance.Steam inhalation will help.If sinuses are tender then antibiotic can be given .flowing nose isn't an indication of sinusitis
