Medicine making Riley sick

Riley has been having a hard time with the meds. We're mixing the worst-tasting ones (digoxin and aldactone) with juice to help them go down. But he still often gags at medicine time. He has also been vomiting regularly - sometimes right after he takes meds, sometimes a while later after he's had something to eat. It's especially frustrating since he still isn't eating much - we hate to lose what little calories he's putting down. Earlier today he threw up his miniscule lunch after drinking some grape juice. His stomach is obviously bothering him quite a bit, sometimes he just wants to lie on the couch. He's apprehensive about eating because he's afraid he's going to throw up.

We talked to a member of Riley's cardiology team but she didn't have much advice. She recommended mixing the medicine (which we've tried) and spreading them out so he's not taking them all at once (which we'll try tonight).

Riley has shown some interest in foods that he can't eat very much of such as string cheese, croutons and pizza. We have one more week of the low fat diet and then we'll have more options to get him eating.
