Reply to comment by SansaLaMensa in When a person gets stomach flu (viral gastroenteritis) or food poisoning, what exactly is happening in the body that causes stomach cramps? by geekonthemoon
It depends on what's causing the vomit, but yes it's possible that's it is not helping, the same way that anti coughing medicine is usually not a good idea (unless you're coughing because of an irritation)

During N/V bouts, the toxins are being evacuated as well fluids and electrolytes. On top of dehydration, electrolytes such as Sodium, Potassium will be severely out of balance, which can then lower the threshold for critical dysthymias. College students do the same thing by overloading on energy drinks!
