HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Ciprofloxacin can cause nausea and vomiting in some persons, this is also a rare side effect of tagamet.

It is possible that your episodes of vomiting were related to the medication but it can also be related to other causes such as viral or bacterial gastroenteritis.

If the vomiting has ceased and there are no additional symptoms such as abdominal pain or diarrhea, then you can continue the medications.
If the symptoms are continuing or worsening then you may want to speak or visit your doctor to determine if the symptoms are related to your medications.

I hope this helps
