Thanks for the reply. Okay will try the nausea med.
But after giving initial dose of antibiotics/appetite med/stomach med - wife thought if she can entice him to eat some mashed potato. Not ideal - just doc said it would be good to have some food in their stomach once he takes antibiotics. Not sure if it is the appetite med, or not - but ate fair bit of mashed potato from hand (made specifically for him - mild stuff). And then right after drank a fair bit of water from my hand as if he was thirsty.
So seems a bit better now, and walked around the house a bit. Hopefully, improvement continues.
