Gastroenteritis: Simultaneous Vomiting and diarrhea are usually due to food poisoning or a viral infection of the gastrointestinal tract. Both should resolve without specific treatment except for rest, intake of room temperature fluids, light diet starting with saltine crackers and soups. Flat ginger ale helps nausea and kaopectate (kaolin and pectin) helps diarrhea. If symptoms worsen or don't improve, see your MD.
