Hi all, i'm in desperate need of advice on the pros and cons of switching to feeding my 10 week old daughter formula. She's fully breastfed and it's going ok, all things considered, but I'm not sure…Continue

Hi there, I'm new to this site and very heartened (but sympathetic) to see that so many others are going through the reflux nightmare we're in. My 10-week old daughter has been through the usual…Continue

Do they have the 10mg tablets in stock? You could give 2 to make up the 20mg dose. Without a prescription they won't give you an alternative PPI, but the pharmacist may be able to give you a different strength tablet. Jen x

Hi Lisa,
When you say omeprazole didnt agree with your daughter - what kind of symptoms did she exhibit? Looking at my diary I think my son has been more grumbly throughout the day and having more screaming fits since the omeprazole kicked…

Hi there, my little boy is now 22 months and we've just stopped final medication (Omeprazole) - fingers crossed he seems ok so far. When his reflux was at its worst he took all three medication - Domperdone (ideally 20mins before a meal, I…

Hi, I believe that you can take om'zole and r'dine at the same time, but there must be 4 hrs between them, otherwise the r'dine stops the om'zole working

Hi,
you can give the ranitidne and omeprazole together both medicines do slightly different things, the omeprazole is stopping the acid production but the ranitidine is a neutraliser, so it will help to neutralise what ever else is been refluxed.…

We stopped the r'dine initially (on hv's instructions) but with disastrous consequences so i kept giving it to her till the om'zole kicked in. Since things got bad again i've been asking the gp/hv whether i can give r'dine…

Did you carry on with the ranitidine when you started the omeprazole. We overlapped them for two weeks and that worked. my daughter now on both which also worked.

Nikki replied to Elizabeth Marsh's discussion 'Omeprazole stopped working'
My daughter tried ranitidine and after a month of doing great, she went downhill, effect of it just wore off. So she was then put on omeprazole, but the capsule and this has been brilliant, i was told that the liquid form wasnt as good and also a…

I know exactly what you mean about trying to give your baby Gaviscon before a feed - it's totally unrealistic to expect a very young (and hungry) baby to delay feeding while you spoon what must be a fairly rancid-tasting paste into them. I gave…
Clare Good replied to Elizabeth Marsh's discussion 'Is breast really best??'
No I couldn't do Carobel or gaviscon as I purely breast fed. Didn't even express really (well did but my son wouldnt take a bottle). Gaviscon really didn't work for me at all - couldnt do it after a feed as it made my son gag and…

Thanks so much for your insight, Clare and Victoria. I guess what's happening is, I feel like I'm running out of new things to try, now that the omeprazole doesn't seem to be the answer, so althiugh i'd like to keep at the…
Victoria replied to Elizabeth Marsh's discussion 'Is breast really best??'
Seriously consider this hun as I stopped at 8 weeks as I thought she was worse on my milk - I was sooooooooo wrong and she was so much worse on formula - even LF and hypo milks!!!
Nothing is more natural than breast milk and unless she is allergic…
Clare Good replied to Elizabeth Marsh's discussion 'Is breast really best??'
It's a very emotive and personal issue that everyone has an opinion on but I firmly believe that breast is best! I had to change my diet a bit to help my son's reflux - I no longer eat dairy because he is dairy intolerant and that's…
