Dr. Shah Chowdhury answered

Specializes in Pediatrics

VOMITING: If severe, needs to be taken to the er, will need intravenous fluid and electrolytes. Blood electrolytes will need to be checked along with some other parameters. The cause of vomiting have to be investigated and anti-emetics may be temporarily required. Take your child to the er asap.
