hugs! you do what you can!
and, if you want to try the zantac at only 2 hours seperate from the prevacid, you can- it’s worth a shot. Our ped Gi said 2 hrs & that’s what we did…so it’s worth a shot. also, we can help you find the maximum zantac dose for his weight- 10mgs per kilo
what does he weigh?

what is her weight & dose?
http://www.marci-kids.com has the doses, so you can check.
are you giving it on an empty stomach followed by a meal 30 minutes later?

not much will stop the spitting up. the prevacid will stop the pain & the acid, so if it’s a proper dose & being administered properly, then it shouldn’t be acidic & then it shoudn’t…[Read more]
