Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing to us.
Usually loose stools and vomiting at this age is viral infection.
It will settle down in a few days.
Emeset is ondansetron which is given to control vomiting.
I Usually prescribe around 3 ml three times before food.
I also advice oral rehydration solutions like electral to be given in sips frequently every few minutes to keep hydrated.
Ensure she passes urine atleast six to eight times a day.
Consult your doctor tomorrow to assess her.
Wishing your child good health.
