Vomit: Firstly why do you want to vomit? Secondly you are 15yrs old - i definitely would not make any recommendation - discuss your desire to vomit with your parent/s.

Not available: There used to be an over the counter drug most parents were encouraged to have to treat a poisoning. It was found to have little benefit & be misused by people with mental illness trying to loose or maintain weight. It had a nasty side effect of being toxic to the heart muscle in chronic use. It is no longer available in most pharmacies or drug sections of stores in the US.

Eating disorder?: I am concerned that you are 15, asking about a medicine to help you vomit, rather than sticking your finger down your throat. If you are already causing yourself to vomit after meals because you believe you are overweight, you likely have an eating disorder called bulimia. Eating disorder clinics have the expertise to treat this problem. Best wishes.
