At 12am he started violently vomiting with diarrhea he did that until 7am this morning. he has had diarrhea twice since 7am and is running a fever of 101.0 could he be having a reaction to the antibiotic? they also prescribed him hydrocodone but he hadn't taken any in over 24 hrs prior to taking the other medication at 9:30pm last night
