What Causes Vomiting And Constant Cough?

my 5 month old vomits the same time every night and it is vomit not spit up. I have had her to the dr. 3 times. First they said it was just stomach flu, then the next time I brought just a few days later, they said it was a sinus and ear infection and gave her zithromax and she had a cough (not croupy cough though). I had her to the er last night b/c she could not stop coughing and they gave her pediapred b/c she had a constant cough. They put her on Zantac on Friday thinking the vomiting was from acid reflux. Not sure what is going on but I am bringing her in tomorrow and i need answers. Any ideas what could be going on?
