Go to toilet, prepare myself.

Unless you know what’s justifying your nausea, it’s always better to let the vomiting happen. Your body’s pretty well tuned, most of the time it’s expelling things out for good reason.

Not always. Sometimes vomiting is a reaction to a drug or environmental exposure to something, not a flu bug or food poisoning. No amount of vomiting is going to rid your body of that toxin and you'll be dehydrating yourself for no good cause.

If it’s a drug taken orally, it’s absolutely a good idea to vomit if you feel the need to after taking it

I experienced a build up of a drug and by the time I was vomiting and not long after had diarrhea, there was NO ejecting the drug. I wound up very dehydrated and in the hospital.

Vomiting and diarrhea isn't always good for a person!
