Answers:
If he can keep it down emetrol (its a carbohydrate solution) up to 5 doses

make sure to keep him hydrated (pedilyte, gatorade, i/2 strength chicken broth, saltines, water, non-caffenated regular pop)

Usually the stomach virus is self-limiting and should clear up on it's own

if you notice severe dehydation, fever or doesn't clear up in more than 72 hours tell him to get to the docWww@Answer-Health@Com

Try ginger tea!. Sounds kind of crazy, but it actually really helps!. I used it last time I was sick and was pretty amazed!. The only hard thing with a stomach flu is keeping it down to begin with!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
