Acute gastroenteritis (AGE) is a common condition among children that is frequently accompanied by vomiting. Symptomatic control of vomiting is important as it improves patient's general condition and reduces the need for intravenous therapy and hospitalization. Antiemetic agents including ondansetron and domperidone are used to provide symptomatic relief but the existing studies do not provide enough evidence of better efficacy for one over another.
