What Could Cause Severe Nausea / Vomiting, Appetite Loss After HBV Vaccination?

I recently started working in a nursing home and decided to receive a second series of the HBV vaccination. I received it in the 90's in 7th grade, but I wanted to get it again just to be safe. The week after receiving the vaccination I experienced nausea and loss of appetite. I couldnt eat without feeling the urge to vomit, and I wake up in the middle of the night rushing to the bathroom because I feel like I'm going to throw up. Yesterday I was so nauseaous the I wasn't hungry all day, my husband fed me half a sandwich in the afternoon only for me to throw it up five hours later. Ive been nauseas all day and every time I eat I feel nauseas and feel like I need to vomit. Is this a normal reaction?

Infectious Diseases Specialist,  's  Response
Hello dear,

Thank you for your contact to healthcaremagic.

I read and understand your concern.

I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.

You are nauseating because of the gastritis caused by the vaccine.

It is normal in some people, it is nothing to worry about.

I suggest you to take pantoprazole and domperidone drug combination under your doctors guidance. Please take the above drug just half an hour before the meal.

As a part of home remedy I also suggest you to take small frequent diet instead of one heavy diet which fills your complete belly.

You can also take a cold milk at the time of feeling extreme nauseating. It will immediately dilute the acid generated in the stomach.

I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.

Thank you,
Dr Arun Tank
