Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

If you have already been given a tablet with a combination of Dicyclomine and Paracetamol and vomiting medicine, and if the vomiting has not stopped, you should consult a doctor. Mild intermittent pain from worm infestation can also be treated by giving Ivermectin and Albendazole 10 ml once daily, preferably at night. Give Ondansetron 5 ml twice a day for vomiting. Food indigestion is another cause for which you must wait and watch. You can administer vomiting medication and keep the patient hydrated. Follow up after that.

I hope this helps.

Please revert so I can assist you further.

Thank you.
