For vomiting and watery diarrhea, the most crucial step is preventing dehydration. Start drinking Oral Rehydration Salts (ORS) dissolved in water, sipping it slowly. For vomiting, a doctor can prescribe an antiemetic like ondansetron. For diarrhea, over-the-counter loperamide can help, but do not take it if you have a fever or bloody stools, as this could indicate an infection. Stick to a bland diet (bananas, rice, toast) once you can tolerate food. If you experience severe pain, high fever, or cannot keep any liquids down for 24 hours, please see a doctor for a proper evaluation.
