Suggest Treatment For Severe Vomiting And Diarrhea In A Child

Get her to the emergency/physician
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to HCM
Persistent vomiting in the presence of diarrhea may cause fluid loss from the body and thus dehydration.
The main aim in such condition is to improve the oral acceptance to prevent dehydration and complications related to dehydration.
As the oral acceptance is very poor she may not tolerate even the medication for vomiting and thus injectable antiemetic (medicine for vomiting) might be needed.
Intravenous fluids may also be needed in case of dehydration and poor oral acceptance.
I would suggest you to take her to a physician/emergency room for immediate management.
Wishing for your baby's speedy recovery
Please let me know if you have any more query.
