Pediatrician 's  Response
Probably your child has gastroenteritis. It causes diarrhoea and vomiting that can continue for 5-7 days. Give her Ondem MD (ondansetron mouth dissolving tablet) half an hour before food so that she does not vomit it out. Give ORS so that she does not suffer from dehyration due to loss of salt and water from body. The blood counts will indicate if there are signs of infection. If you post the reports, I will try to help you further.
