A member asked:

My 9 yr old son is taking ammoxicillin for an ear infection.even prior to this he is feeling n sometimes vomiting 1 to 2 times a week?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Further evaluation: The causes of vomiting when longer than 1-2 weeks are quite varied. The vomiting doesn't seem to be related to the ear infection, it would be good to talk with your child's physician.

Dr Ferdowsi and another doctor agreed
