A member asked:
Can loratadine help prevent nausea and vomiting due to gastroenteritis? how effective would it be in prevention of vomiting?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Loratadine is ineffective for this. If medication was needed would likely be Compazine(prochlorperazine) or Zofran(ondansetron).
