I thought you could give compounded meds at any time but i have just read on another site you are still meant to give them 30mins-1 hr before a meal!!

I’m getting confused now as to what i should be doing!!

I am using omeprazole and caracream and also some pharmacy compounded stuff i have left!

What am i meant to be doing when it comes to timing it?

compounding can be given at any time…check out ‘Prevacid 101’- it’s linked to from ‘Groupie Intro’ and also posted in the ‘treating GERD w/ PPIs’ post that’s stickied in the Medicines Forum hellbennt2006-9-27 12:32:42

Laura is right. The compound can be given at any time. I also read the info from the other site in question, but I don’t believe that to be correct. The key is to getting the compound made correctly. But even our pharmacy, who had trouble preparing the compound, knew that you can give it at any time irrespective of meals. You can also put it into something basic- like formula- if you want.

i gave caraream whenever and with formula. it worked beatifully. i trust dr phillips advice when it comes to this, because he created caracream and zegerid and he has dedicated himself to infant reflux.
