AHHHHHHH!

So does Jacob get 5ml in the am and 5ml in the pm or how does it work? At that age, Abby was getting 5.5ml 3 times per day which controlled things very well. Just wondering so maybe I could offer more advice

I agree 100% with the three doses. I take a 20mg packet, mix with 6.5 mls of water. That makes 10ml’s total! I give 5ml’s at 8am, another 5 mls’s at 2pm, and make another packet at this time, and give another 5mls at 8pm. There is then a dose leftover for the AM. I keep in fridge each time.

This is 30mg a day, and it has helped Sophie!

Bryce does much better with three doses too – the last one right before bedtime.

i have to say that 20 mg of zegerid a day sounds almost useless. i imagine that would not do much for his reflux. have you seen the dosing calulator on marci-kids.com?

Yes, you can. But probably just mix it in an ounce of forumla so he’s more likely to drink it all. Then you can feed him another bottle.

Also, be sure to add the medication right before you feed him because it will degrade if added too soon.

Good luck. I hope the higher dose does the trick.
