Scenario
Jamie Sands (DOB 10/12/1997) presents to your office with acute viral gastroenteritis. She hasn’t vomited in more than 6 hours and is able to tolerate clear liquids but she is constantly nauseous. In addition to encouraging adequate fluid intake and monitoring for signs and symptoms of dehydration, you plan to give her a prescription for promethazine to alleviate her nausea. She only needs a limited amount for a few days. She will be instructed to follow-up in 72 hours if nausea does not resolve or sooner if she starts to experience intractable vomiting or signs of dehydration.
