When to go to hospital for vomiting adult?

I've been vomiting frequently for almost a day now, and I can't keep any liquids down. I'm feeling very dizzy and my mouth is dry. When should an adult go to the hospital for vomiting to avoid complications?

If you're vomiting more often than I change my bedsheets (which, let's be honest, is not often enough) or if you're so weak you can't even hold your phone, then hospital time, boss! Otherwise, sips of ORS and chill. 😂

Yaar, agar bohot zyada vomiting ho rahi hai, like every hour, and you can't even keep water down, then hospital jaana padega. Actually, if you feel dizzy when you stand up, that's a big sign of dehydration, so don't take it lightly.

My dear, listen to your body. If it feels too much, if there is extreme weakness or if you see anything unusual in the vomit, do not delay. Seek help from the hospital. Stay calm and positive, but do not ignore severe signals.

As a working professional, I can't afford to be down for long. If the vomiting is continuous for more than 24 hours, or I start feeling really weak and lightheaded, I head to a clinic. If it's really bad, like black or bloody vomit, then straight to ER, no questions asked. Time is money, health is primary.

I just recovered from a bad bout of vomiting last month. For me, the red flags were extreme dehydration, like not peeing for hours, and severe stomach pain that wouldn't go away. Also, if there's blood in the vomit, obviously run to the hospital.

For adults, it's similar to kids in some ways. If they can't keep any liquids down for several hours, show signs of severe dehydration (dizziness, very dry mouth), have high fever, or severe abdominal pain, it's best to get them checked. Better safe than sorry.
