A member asked:

How can i tell if puking yellow bitter stuff is a stomach virus or medication reaction?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Puking yellow stuff: Puking yellow stuff after taking medcine may be from the medcine itself. But if you have too much acid in your stomach then too you may throw up yellow unpleasant stuff. Is it is only yellow liquid or you throw up food with it as well? You should see your docotr.
