Very ill tonight

Today has been a rough day. I've been off dicletin for a few days but I decided to get more. I took two at 5:30 but then threw up a lot at 7. I assume the pills came up with it. Should I retake or wait till morning? Anything else I can do for nausea in the meantime? You would think I would have a solution by now but I'm lost.

    If you took them at 5:30 and didn't throw up until 7, I wouldn't take anymore.  Pills usually start to take effect 45 minutes after taking them.  Since it was an hour and a half, you already have them in your system.

    Ginger helps a lot with nausea.  Try sipping some ginger ale (just make sure it has real ginger in it) and munching on some saltines until you can get your stomach to settle down.  Nausea can be caused by hunger or low blood sugar.  You may feel hungry (that's the way it was with me) but your blood sugar may be low and you not have symptoms yet.  Hope you feel better soon!

    ETA:  If my blood sugar gets too low, it makes me throw up.  Sometimes I can get clues it's going to happen such as shaking and other times, it just hits me.
