What are the treatments?
There is a wide variety of natural remedies and drugs that can help. Drugs that stop vomiting are called antiemetics. They will neutralize and block the reflex, with Metopimazine being the most commonly used one. As in most cases, treatment depends on the cause of the problem.
Practical advice in case of vomiting
A few simple rules to apply:
- Adapt your diet;
- Plain foods, such as rice and saltine crackers, will provide comfort and relieve hunger without disturbing the stomach;
- Drink clear and ice-cold drinks slowly. Avoid alcohol, coffee and sugary drinks;
- Do not mix hot and cold foods;
- Eat carefully and slowly;
- Avoid fried, greasy and sweet foods;
- Wash your face, brush your teeth, and drink a glass of water;
- Relax and breathe calmly;
- Rest by listening to music or watching a movie;
- Avoid unpleasant odors;
- Avoid lying on your back after eating. Remain seated for 30 to 60 minutes after food, as lying down can make the symptoms worse.
