Prevacid causes abdominal pain????

[Anonymous]

I’m new to the whole reflux thing – and I after reading some of the posts – I feel like a jerk. I feel badly for so many of you and feel like I have no right to “complain”!!!

I have a question, though – my 3month old son was on Axid – took a while to regulate and when it finally started working, I think he “out grew” it. We’re now moving on to Prevacid. Here’s my question:

When I’m holding him and he’s screaming his poor little lungs out, I can feel his stomache and intestines turning and gurgling. He’s had very loose stool pretty much all of his life. With him having a bad belly anyway and side effects of Prevacid to be abdominal pain, diarrhea and nausea – how is this going to be helpful?? He’s in so much pain now that I’m just feeling like “why do I want to put him thru more??”

not sure of the scientific reason, LOL! but it helped my little one and for SURE he had glerping going on inside!!

unfortunately this whole reflux thing is trial and error, so after PROPERLY ADMINISTERING a PROPER dose of prevacid for 2 weeks you’ll be able to know…

it’s hard!!!
