The commonest cause of vomiting at this age is regurgitation due to over feeding.
Give only breastfeeding at a gap of at least 2-1/2 hours,not before.
Give nothing else by mouth and then burp him for 10 mins after every feed.
Lay him on his RIGHT side for half an hour after burping.
Keep him elevated by placing a small cushion beneath the head AND shoulders,24/7.
NO meds are required, usually.
If the problem still persists even after following above mentioned instructions strictly,then consult me or your paediatrician for physical examination and treatment.
