Answers:
The crackers and ginger ale, or toast and sprite is not to stop the vomiting and diarrhea!.!.!. it's to keep him from having an empty stomach and from dehydrating!. Those items are the easiest on a sensitive stomach!.

Keep him on the BRAT diet, until he is better:

Bananas
Rice
Apple sauce
ToastWww@FoodAQ@Com

He's probably drunk, just let him throw up and roll him onto his stomach if he passes out in the bathroom!. I would give him water with a few pinches of salt or gatoradi!. Salt helps the body retain water so he wont be so dehydrated (which is why sports drinks use it)!. the sugar and carbonation in ginger ale won't be very settling to his stomach!. Toast or any kind of crackers is a good idea!. They probably wont work right away, its just one of those things that you have to let pass!. If he hasn't been drinking and its something else, you should make sure he drinks plenty of fluid and eats and if other symptoms start poppingg up you could take him to a doctor!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

He probably has a stomach virus, in which case you cant treat, but you just have to wait until the virus passes through your bros body!. Let him rest and give him lots of liquids, but dont be surprised if he even throws that up!. Dont worry it will probably only last a day!. It is very common!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

just give him sips of ginger ale or ice chips to keep him hydrated!. He is losing fluids quickly!.

I could just be a 24 hour virus, so this may continue for a bit!. Keep him hydrated as well as you can, even if he throws it up!. If it continues (24 hours!?) I would take him to the ER!.

I had this yesterday and mine seemed like it was just at 24 hour flu or something!. I think it is going around right now, if this persists for over 48 hours I would take him to a doctor, if he can't get liquids to stay down he will eventually dehydrate!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

i had the same thing a couple years back what had happened was i wad dyharded and i want to the ER and they gave me a IV and ya! Www@FoodAQ@Com

Take him to a doctor!. Or a clinic!. He could just have the flu, but I would take him to be checked out!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

fluids are essential to prevent dehydration, if its bad, go to the hospitalWww@FoodAQ@Com

Why is this in the drink section!? Is it a hang over!?Www@FoodAQ@Com
