Guest guest Posted December 30, 2000 Report Share Posted December 30, 2000 Carla, Give you family lots of clear liquids to keep them from getting dehydrated, and don't feed them until the flu bug passes. No food in the tummy to irritate it should help them feel better. Ginger Ale and 7-Up were old stand-bys when I was a kid and we'd get intestinal flu. There is an anti-nausea medicine you can get over the counter. It' s a liquid called Emetrol. You should be able to get it at your pharmacy.

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2000 Report Share Posted December 30, 2000 Terry got to it before me. I have never used it but my husband used it and it worked well for him. You can even use it for your 3 yo. Hope you all feel better. Robin B " Terry L. Ross " writes: > Carla, > There is an anti-nausea medicine you can get over the counter.

Guest guest Posted December 30, 2000 Report Share Posted December 30, 2000 Carla - I always had them SIP full-sugar Pepsi, plus there is a syrup on the market (drug stores) SPECIFICALLY for nausea and vomitting. It's the opposite of Ipecac. I can't remember the darned name, but your pharmacist will know it, and it truly works. Unfortunately you can't give a three=year old Pepto Bismol tablets, but it works well for the adults. Kids can't have it because the salicitates in it mimic aspirin, and can contribute to Reyes syndrome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 1, 2001 Report Share Posted January 1, 2001 Hey Kirstie, Over here we have Doctors that tell us to do the BRAT diet after a bout with vomiting or diahrrea! That is Bananas Rice Applesauce and Toast. Cheryl Ü >>>When they are feeling better, I was taught to start of with RABY: rice, applesauce, bananas, yogurt. Apparently these are all really easy on the tummy.<<< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
