A member asked:
My dad threw up for 12 hours. are there 12 hrs stomach bugs or was it food poisoning?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be either.: Both scenarios could lead to vomiting which occurs for 12 hours. Assuming that his vomiting has now stopped, he needs to drink plenty of fluids to be sure that he is not dehydrated. If he has any further symptoms, he should see his doctor. Good luck.
