Toledo, Ohio GI specialist?

I’m in Fostoria, Ohio about an hour south of Toledo. We saw Dr. Bobo from

nov. 2003 to oct. 2004 he was also a godsend to us. We saw him at the BG

office. I found that whenever we needed dosage increases all I had to do was

bring a printout of weight increases also with high and low dose figures and

he always gave us the increase. Marci-kids wasn’t around when we were

patients but if he’s the same as when we saw him I believe he’d be receptive

with the dosing. Good luck and I’m glad to see someone from my area here!!

It’s a small world!!

Hi Amy–

I didn’t have an actual “chart” that I used, but what I did was actually

wrote

out Aidan’s current weight converted it to kilos and did the math……don’t

quote me cause I’m not sure if dosages have changed since we used

prevacid…..but I used the 1.5 mgs per kilo as a low dose and 3 mgs per

kilo

for a high dose. When Aidan was 9 months old (I wish I could tell you his

exact weight, however his baby book is sadly empty for this period of his

life) we were approved for up to 30mgs a day. Split or however I wanted

to

do the dose. I would think that your son being a year that he’d be willing

to

allow you to try it. I was always firm about what I wanted and went in

knowing what we wanted to do. I never was rude but do consider myself

pushy with my kiddos . If anything maybe ask him to “humor” you and

allow you to try a higher dose? Hope this helps….I always kinda thought

with bringing the math in he saw that I knew what would be

acceptable….maybe that would help him “see” your side of things. Hope

this helps!!
