Medication and vomitting-do you give repeat dose?

[HotI]

Back home again! Got her checked out and just one of the viruses that is going around. So, keep fluids up and just ride it out.

we only give medicine when temps are getting to 39 deg or more, i subscribe to darwinian medicine, wheree many symptoms are helping the body fight infection but i a also wary of letting her temp get too high. especially when her behaviour is so out of character.

thanks all

Good news it's nothing scary.. hope she makes a quick recovery. it's exhausting when kids are sick.

to answer your original question, no it is not safe to give more medicine after they have vomited as you have no way of know how much (if any) is actually in the system and risk overdosing on the medication.

Glad things are on the improve though. Poor wee thing.
