Prevacid Solutabs = rash for baby?

[Anonymous]

Hi all,

My 3 month old Sam started taking the prevacid solutabs last night (7.5 mgs) and this morning woke up with a face rash on both cheeks. Is this common? Just wondering if anyone else experienced this.

I had heard there is some lactose in it – not sure if he has an intolerabce to it, but when I was BFing him he had rashes and once on the Alimentum, it disappeared.

I will keep and eye on it but thought I would ask.

Thanks!

it might be the aspertame or the coloring or anything else. lactose is milk sugar and, while it is not impossible, it is rare for babies to be lactose intolerant- what they can be is allergic or intolerant to milk protein…

Did anything else change last night? New detergent, baby soap etc? was it warmer than usual? Like Laura said the lactose is probably not the culprit… but it is possible, more likely the aspartame if that is the case… Keep any eye on it to make sure it doesn’t get worse.
