He does the same even if i give him formula... i m worried that is he having proper diet?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
As suggested by the medication given by the doctor, he may have reflux. This would cause the vomiting that you mentioned.
He should be weighed to make sure that he is still gaining weight appropriately.
He may need to get slightly smaller feeds. In some instances, if they feed too much at a time, they bring out some the feed.
I hope this helps
