Antipyretics refer to fever-reducing medications. Vomiting occurring about twenty minutes after taking antipyretics may result from physiological factors or pathological conditions such as gastritis or acute tonsillitis. Treatment can be achieved through general management and medication. Specific details are as follows:

1. Physiological Factors

If spicy or greasy foods are consumed during the period of taking antipyretics, they may irritate the stomach, leading to symptoms such as nausea and vomiting. It is important to adjust the diet, focusing on light and easily digestible foods.

2. Pathological Factors

1) Gastritis
Gastritis is typically acute or chronic inflammation of the gastric mucosa caused by various factors, possibly related to psychological stress. It can easily irritate the gastric lining, causing stomach pain and bloating. Under a doctor's guidance, medications such as Weiwan Shu tablets or Weiyanning granules may be taken for treatment.

2) Acute Tonsillitis
This condition is primarily caused by bacterial infection or excessive inhalation of dust irritating the throat, resulting in local mucosal congestion and inflammation of the throat. Symptoms include sore throat, nausea, and phlegm. Under a doctor’s guidance, medications such as cefuroxime axetil tablets or roxithromycin dispersible tablets may be used for treatment.

In addition to the above causes, vomiting may also be due to duodenal ulcer, gastric perforation, or gastrointestinal bleeding. It is important to maintain a positive mental state and avoid emotional excitement.
