We’ve been giving Andrew generic Reglan for almost 48 hours now. I’m still very nervous about its possible side effects and think I will ask our ped for the Erithromyacin (sp?) instead.

But, in the meantime, the dosage is 1 ml 4x day. We only have been having reflux issues at night time. Is Reglan something that really has to be given through the day/night for maximum effectiveness or can we give it only at bedtime for the nighttime DGE problem? We found out (by accidently missing the morning dose) that Zegerid has to be given around the clock, not just at night, for Andrew to have better nights. Is Reglan the same way or can we just give a nighttime dose?

Thanks for any input you might have.

I think I would continue giving it the 4 times a day. Bryce is on the erythromycin and whenever we miss a dose we really see a difference in his emptying.

I think it’s supposed to be kept at a constant level in their body, so it makes a difference if you skip doses.
