Suggest Treatment For Vomiting And Fever In A Child

Do not worry
Detailed Answer:
Hi
I understand your concerns but don't worry. The symptoms can be due to viral illness or parasitic infestations. Also, sometimes food allergies can present in this way.
I would recommend you to give de worming treatment to both of them (Albendazole 400 mg single dose on day 1 and 14). Most viral gastric infections are self limiting and improve gradually over a few days with good hydration and regular nutrition. You may give Domperidone for vomiting episodes and acetaminophen for fever episodes. Try to find if any new food ingredient was introduced during this period as it might have lead to food allergy. If yes, then omit that in future.
In case the activity, appetite and symptoms do not improve in next 2 days, then do visit a pediatrician for proper clinical examination and definitive treatment accordingly.
Hopefully it will be of help. I would be happy to help you in any further questions.
Take care
