Hi,
Instead of giving Ondem syrup for vomiting we should find out the reason for vomiting.
Please see that there is no over feeding which might result in vomiting.
With milk a child sucks air in feeding which also can give rise vomiting.
So after feeding keep child in standing position for some time. which will allow passing of air ingested.
If problem parsisted then consult padiatrist and get examined.
Ok and take care.
