Ginger is best to fight nausea. But if you can't stop vomiting, you should drink an electrolyte. One tablespoon per half hour. Try something simple like toast or saltines after you can control your vomiting. If not, keep up with the electrolytes.

My wife had this problem all through her first pregnancy. This is what we had to resort to. If it ever happens again, I'll definitely consider using cannabis.

I agree with Nathaniel. Ginger definitely helps with the nausea, and hence the vomiting. Electrolytes are important too.

I just read somewhere that cloves helps too. So maybe sipping a ginger and cloves decoction.

BRAT diet has been used many a time in my childhood due to weak stomachs.

Foods allowed to eat: Bananas, Rice, Applesauce, Toast.

Ensure hydration post vomitus event.

Peppermint or ginger works pretty nicely but also if you are vomiting always try to stay hydrated as best you can.

Ginger ale is a good drink to sip if you have nausea.

All of the above and saltine crackers.

For nausea, I like ginger, peppermint and papaya.

We use Blackberry root tincture and if we have it, Oregon grape root tincture.  Angelica tincture has also brought relief and I have a friend that swears by Skunk cabbage.  
 
We kept yelling "heart attack" and he kept shaking his head. Charades was the tiny ad's idea.
Switching from electric heat to a rocket mass heater reduces your carbon footprint as much as parking 7 cars
