Brief Answer:
rest, paracetamol, consider adding dramamine, fluids in small amounts

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

The most common reasons for acute/recent onset of vomiting are-(1) viral infection of the stomach
(2)GERD
(3)use of foods that irritate the individual's stomach stomach

The presence of a headache and muscle pain indicate that a viral infection may be present. Viral infections tend to cause systemic symptoms. These are symptoms that occur in places other than the site of infection eg the infection is in stomach but other symptoms are felt else where

The main aspects of treatment are-(1) rest,
(2) taking small amounts of fluids at a time, if too much is used at once then it causes vomiting
(3)the medications that you are using are fine (tums, pepcid complete), you can add anti emetic such as dramamine if the vomiting persists
(4)paracetamol/tylenol to help with the headache , fever and muscle pain

Medications such as aleve or advil should not be used because they would irritate the stomach lining further

I hope this helps, feel free to ask any other questions
