I started a ketogenic lifestyle nearly three years ago. Fortunately I don’t get sick often, but I am battling a sinus infection with antibiotics that make me vomit. Lots of drugs—any type of narcotic and most antibiotics—make me vomit, so it’s a lifelong issue. The only thing that helps me is to take 1/2 Zofran (prescription anti-nausea meds that you can take 20 minutes before taking a nauseating medication) and eating 1/2 cup white rice that has been cooked in coconut oil and broth. (I do refrigerate it and reheat so that it is a resistant starch.). But I have another week to go ok these antibiotics, and I don’t want to eat carbs twice daily. I tried a small amount of eating meat and fat before taking the antibiotic, and I threw up for an hour. Does anyone with the same queasy condition have a Keto alternative that works for you to keep your meds down? 
What to eat to prevent vomiting when taking medicine?

I’m really sorry that you are having this issue.
Sinus infections are not nice. Had a couple myself so can empathise.
I’m wondering if the vomiting is your body saying that it really doesn’t want the antibiotics. I guess its your N=1.
Is the carbs (or hopefully a better solution, which unfortunately I don’t have) worth the health benefits of the antibiotics, especially when you factor in the disruption to the gut bacteria diversity?
Anyway, I hope you recover quickly.

I wonder if something like just a few tablespoons of unsweetened coconut cream would work before each dose, it’s dairy free so shouldn’t interfere with the antibiotics working and it’s very mild flavor almost a plain yogurt like consistency…
