What Can You Buy To Stop Vomiting

Many parents of vomiting children get concerned if it doesn’t stop after a day. Pediatrician Cindy Gellner, MD, says that doesn’t necessarily mean your child needs to see the doctor. She goes over the signs and symptoms of the stomach bug versus the flu, food poisoning and other illnesses. She also discusses what to feed a puking child and how you can treat the bug from your home. A dog vomiting blood will become dehydrated and experience acid-base imbalance or electrolyte abnormalities.

Fluid therapy through an oral rehydration solution or intravenous fluids helps correct these imbalances. Antiemetics. Antiemetics (Reglan, Cerenia) are drugs that stop vomiting. You can still offer extra oral rehydration fluids between feeds. If your child doesn’t want to drink, try to get them drinking more by offering fluids via a syringe or spoon, or letting them suck icy poles. You shouldn’t use over-the-counter medicines to stop vomiting in children. The side effects of these medications can be very serious.
