Please read on: THis mediacation does cause severe gastritis and vomitting. Not commonly use in such young babies, unless there is a specific diagnosis, requiring such use. Do call your pediatrician, and discuss the need for this drug, if at all.

Vomiting meds: You did the right thing repeating the dose. After 20 minutes, there is likely some absorption. Give your child a break and wait until the next dose.
