Most important is the correct diagnosis.
Further treatment would depend upon the diagnostic work up.

If your child is diagnosed as West syndrome then treatment is prolonged. The cause of vomitting can not be known for sure unless a child is fully examined.
There are many causes for this including sone drug effect.
For proper diagnoses MRI brain , EEG , Blood tests are needed.
For now this is important that his fits are controlled. Other things are dealt after seizure controle.
