ok so we have tried EVERYTHING and nothing is working. The omeprazole (5ml) has helped a little - cos now he doesnt scream and arch his back but he is still pretty much crying/moaning ALL day EVERY day. He only naps on me during the day for like 20 mins at a time and is also unsettled/uncomfy during the night. they dont care cos he is gaining weight!!!!! they are totally not interested in him cos of this - and tell me he is fine as he is not being sick/losing weight. But its silent reflux he…See More

Hi my son is on omeprazole liquid. Because it is made up specially it does not come with any instructions etc. Anyway i have read such conflicting things on line. Some saying give before a feed (at least 30mins) and mix with nothing and others saying mix with milk or give milk right after - even the paed we saw said to mix it with milk if he struggles to take it out the syringe (it tastes vile so he spits it out) I think its different from the tablets or the ones you open and mix with water - i…See More

After some serious fighting, we got Omeprazole suspension, having used Losec Mups previously. We found it much better, but other mums on here had the opposite and thought Losec tablets were better. I think it depends on the…"

Fiona H replied to Michelle P's discussion Allergic to Ranitidine (im not so sure??) - told they cant help anymore??? Sure there are other meds - can anyone help?"Hi
It is rubbish that they can't do any more for him. They must treat the silent reflux or it can lead to other problems like ulcers. I don't know where you live but ask your GP for a referral to see a paediatric gastroenterologist - a…"

- Hi Michelle, my daughter is 11 weeks now, I give her 2.5ml in the morning then the other 2.5ml at her 5pm feed. You can give it in one dose, but she started on 2.5ml and it was increase at 4pm one day, so I have continued to give it in two. Thank god your wee one has been prescribed it so early - we've been to hell and back and only prescribed it just over a week ago xxx

- She's been a bit more settled for last 24 hours, but I took her to a crainiologist yesterday and she seems to have worked wonders for her. Still not completely happy though. I give it through the syringe, the pharmacist said not to give it in bottle as it needs to be kept at a very cold temperature (ie in the fridge). I try to give her it 30 mins before feeds, but it real life it's usually 5 mins before. I was told that as she has a milk allergy too and has been given the wrong milk for 10 weeks, her little tummy will be irritated and will take a few weeks to calm down
