Hi
Thanks for writing to health care magic.
Sudden onset of vomiting in a child is usually viral gastritis or food poisoning.
Try ondansetron tablet 4 mg before each meal.
Give him plenty of liquids to drink in small quantities but frequently.
Make sure he passes urine well
Wishing your kid great health
