What Is The Treatment For Vomiting In A Child?

My son Aiden is 4 yrs old, he s been throwing up since 2am this morning. I have him in bed with a cold rag. Is their anything I need to do other than what I ve already done? His head never felt hot. He keeps wanting to drink, but he throws it back up.

Hi Dear
Welcome to the HCM,
Syrup like ondensetron or demperidone can be given empty stomach for about 5 ml and then do not offer to eat anything to her for about a hour. After one hour you start giving sips of water/ORS with 2 to 3 minutes gap( not in bulk) and go on giving whole day.
Hope the vomiting should stop.
thanks
