Call an ambulance: If you can't go to the hospital call an ambulance. Alcohol is life threatening if you drink a lot. It can cause gastritis (stomach inflammation) resulting in vomiting. Drink fluids. Gatorade or similar is best to replenish lost fluids. If you cannot, you should go to the hospital. If you can take fluids and get better, I recommend you stop drinking!
