Nothing by mouth: For the next four hours. Then small amounts of clear liquids . I find chicken broth the best for vomiting and diarrhea. There's the brat diet- bananas, rice , apple and tea. Saltine crackers, pretzels are good for next 24 hours. If improving slowly advance diet but stay away from any milk products for the next two weeks or so because of the diarrhea. See md if no better? Possible dehydration.

Fluids: Gently offer electrolyte containing fluids such as pediolyte. If he cannot tolerate it for about 6 hours, see your doctor.
