Switching PPI's

[Anonymous]

And so we’re back here, again… 3 for 3. My kids are just doomed to have GERD, I guess. 🙁

Took my daughter (5 weeks old) to the doctor last week because I started noticing symptoms. He put her on 7.5mg of Prevacid solutabs twice a day — or so I thought. Her symptoms are slowly getting better, now a week later, but I looked at the prescription this morning and he’d written it out for only once a day. Needless to say, we’re quickly running out and I want to put her on OTC meds. My question is, if we switch from lansoprazole/Prevacid to OTC omeprazole, will we see a relapse, or should it be a seamless transition?
