Suggest Treatment For Vomiting Along With Cough And Cold

Hi Doctor, my five and a half year daughter has been vomiting from today morning. She is suffering from mild cough & cold from last 2 days. In this situation should I give him VOMIKIND Syrup on S.O.S. basis? If yes, what will be the doses considering that she weighs 18.5 kg?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Yes, you may give vomikind. Vomikind contains ondansetron which decreases the vomiting. Each 5 mL of vomikind contains 2 mg of ondensetron. For 18.5 kg you may give 7.5 mL of vomikind (0.15 mg/kg/dose).

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Pradeep Kumar
