Nausea and Vomiting
These are the questions I will always ask before deciding on a remedy:
- When is it better or worse?
- What makes it better?
- What makes it worse?
- Are there other symptoms going on at the same time?
- Does eating or drinking make it better or worse?
- When did it start?
- What was going on when it started?
- Is this a recurring symptom or a continual symptom, or a one off?

Potency and dose
I would take one dose of a low potency so 12c or 30c then I would repeat in half an hour if no changes have occured.
If the symptoms diminish and then return, I would retake the remedy. (Max 4 or 5 in one day). If no change after 3 doses, I would retake the case and choose a more appropriate remedy.
If the symptoms change I would retake the case to see if a different remedy is required. It might be that you need to wait awhile to see if change continues.
