Brief Answer:
Continue medicines along with ondansetron
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for writing to us.
1. Avoid giving without refrigeration. Better get new bottle and continue lizoforce as advised.
2. Vomiting is usually viral but in your child case it could be because of unrefrigerated medicine. I usually prescribe ondansetron syrup like vomikind around 2 ml thrice daily.
3. Ensure she drinks plenty of liquids including ORS solution.
4. Make sure she passes urine atleast six to eight times a day to make sure her hydration is ok.
If she becomes dull with low urine output consult with your pediatrician again.
Wishing your child good health and speedy recovery.
Regards
Dr Arun
