Wash wash wash wash your hands and the bathroom she is using. There is no meds that will help her really. Just have her try to sip some water so she doesn't get dehydrated. The stomach flu often caused by the noro virus is only passed from vomit/feces to mouth. So as long as you aren't right there next to her when she is sick and clean everything in the bathroom with strong bleach water you should stay healthy. Good luck!
