Talk to experienced doctor online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
Please share details of his symptoms, overall health, then I can help to heal.
Drips are useful if there is diarrhoea and or vomiting, very low glucose or when one is unable to eat at all.
Get cbp, blood glucose fasting and post meal, thyroid function tests done and share results.
Feeling completely energyless + vomit-like sensation (nausea without actual vomiting) is common and can come from many simple causes:
• Dehydration (most frequent reason people feel this way)
• Low blood sugar / skipped meals
• Viral stomach bug or mild food poisoning
• Over-tiredness, stress, low BP, or electrolyte imbalance
• Sometimes early sign of infection or migraine
Demanding a “drip with energy injection” (usually meaning IV glucose/saline + multivitamin/B-complex) is understandable when feeling very weak, but it is not always necessary and should only be done if a doctor confirms need after checking.
Next Steps
1. Do NOT rush to hospital for drip immediately unless there are red flags (see below).
2. Try home measures first (safe and often works fast):
• Give him oral rehydration solution (ORS) or salted lemon water / coconut water / Electral / Enerzal — sip slowly every 10–15 min.
• Offer small sips of glucose water (1 tsp sugar + pinch salt in 200 ml water) or fruit juice if no diabetes.
• Let him rest in cool, quiet place; avoid sudden standing.
• Give plain anti-nausea medicine if available:
• Ondansetron (Ondem / Emeset) 4–8 mg mouth-dissolving tablet
• Or Domperidone (Domstal) 10 mg if no vomiting yet
3. See a doctor / clinic today (or urgent care) if:
• Very drowsy / confused / unable to sit up
• Repeated vomiting starts
• High fever (>38.5°C)
• Severe abdominal pain
• Dry mouth, no urine for 6–8 hours, sunken eyes (dehydration signs)
• Symptoms worsening after 4–6 hours of home care
4. If he insists on drip: Take him to a reputable clinic/hospital — let the doctor examine first (check BP, sugar, dehydration level). They will decide if IV fluids + vitamins are needed or if oral is enough.
Health Tips
• Avoid giving heavy food right now — start with clear fluids, then plain rice, banana, toast if he feels better.
• Keep room cool and well-ventilated.
• Check blood sugar if you have glucometer (low sugar can cause this exact feeling).
• Rest is the best “energy injection” for now — no need to panic.
Most cases improve with fluids + rest in few hours.
If symptoms are severe or you are worried, better to get him checked today — peace of mind is important.
