spitting up mpre on prevacid?

Sometimes the antibiotics don’t work because some of these strains are resistant; so they have to try another antibiotic.

Myles puked constantly, and I didn’t take him off Prevacid until he had stopped throwing up, so I can’t say if there was a difference or not.

Maybe the rice milk?

I hope he’s sleeping better soon.

Lauren,
I was told that Prevacid can delay gastric emptying in some babies. That might be the reason for his increased spitting up. It affects different babies differently.

Yes, that’s true (about the Zithromax). The last time Myles was on it I ended up taking him back to the doctor thinking his infection hadn’t cleared up because he was so irritable, the doc said he was fine. He said the Zithromax could still be bothering him even though he’d had his last dose. A few days later his mood improved dramatically, so I do think that’s what was bothering him.

I’d still take Shane in though, just to be sure his ears are ok.

I’d keep him on Prevacid as long as it’s helping his pain. Myles had DGE and puked up alot of what he ate, but he was pain free and gaining, so the doctor was comfortable with it and felt we should leave things as they were. I’m glad I did because he did very well despite the spitting and puking and his weight was always fine.

Hopefully his ears are fine. The Zithromax stays in the body for 10 days even though you only give it for five days, so they can have tummy aches for the whole 10 days. Maybe that’s what’s bothering him.

Lauren,
I would probably keep him on the Prevacid too if it’s helping him, unless he stops gaining weight from spitting up or something.

Also, I took Zithromax for a sinus infection once and it made me really sick. I was nauseated and didn’t want to eat either! It also made my stomach cramp. So I wonder if that was what was making him spit up more. Glad you were able to get the shot. I hope it does the trick.
