Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

Since your mother has recently got surgery done to remove cancer and lumps therefore she might be under care of her doctor and taking amoxicillin under prescription. Please allow her to complete course of amoxicillin which is an antibiotic as recommended by the doctor. Changing antibiotic is not required if the recovery is going on well.

For vomiting, she should be given medicines like domperidone or ondansetron in combination with proton pump inhibitors if the vomiting is due to gastritis. Please discuss this point with her doctor and then give her the medicine as recommended. It is possible that her symptoms are from lying down in bed for long time. Please make her sit up for at least 30 minutes after meals and give adequate fluids. Please do not worry.
