title: The vomiting asthmatic.
abstract: Attention is called to vomiting as a major manifestation of asthma. The diagnosis requires only careful history and examination. Symptoms respond well to therapy for asthma. Asthma should be included in the differential diagnosis of recurrent or severe vomiting. If this is done, unnecessary diagnostic procedures can be avoided and proper therapy can be promptly instituted.
