General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

You might be having stomach flu or what is called viral gastroenteritis. You may benefit from taking some Omeprazole in the morning to reduce stomach acids and also eat a frequent small amount of food.

I understand you may not be able to eat a lot but if you take a small piece of food every 3-4 minutes you will be having enough food for the day. You will need to take oral rehydration solutions to substitute the water and electrolyte loss with the vomits.

If you see no improvement or you notice any worsening, please see your doctor.

I hope this answers your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Antoneta Zotaj,
