Hello,

The best way to help a child with nausea and vomiting is to give small portions of fluids regularly. Oral rehydration solutions are the best to substitute both water and electrolytes.

If you give one teaspoon of it every 5 minutes the stomach will have time to pass it to the bowel without being overloaded and reduces the nausea.As for domstal syrup, it is not sure about its effect in children and is mostly advised to avoid its use in children.

I hope I have answered to your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
