Diabetic patient vomits

My father is diabetic
And he uses a metformin tablets
He vomited 2 times this day
Do I have something to be concern of......?

Answer

Unless he is having coffee color vomiting or severe continuous vomiting you need not to worry. Make sure he takes enough fluid and give it to him slowly. Give him an anti emetic medication such as domperidone 10mg tds.
