It looks like your brother is suffering from repeated episodes of Acute gastritis. Since he has had several episodes I strongly advice you to approach a gastroenterologist for an Endoscopy to rule out gastric erosions and ulcers. For now please follow these suggestions
1. Tablets like Pantaprozole taken once a day before food for two weeks 2. Avoid smoking and alcohol 3. Avoid Tea, coffee, milk and milk products 4. Meals should be bland, and no meal should be skipped 5. Avoid sleeping immediately after dinner 6. During the acute attacks of vomiting avoid bending exercises
I hope I was of help, please get back to me if you have further queries
Regards
