My Lo has been on this for almost 3 months and it has helped him a lot.
When the pedi put him on it, she told us to mix the 20mg packet with 20mg of water so that is what we have done.He takes 5ml in the am and 5ml in the early afternoon about 7-8 hours after the morning dose. We don’t give him a 3rd dose in the pm because he doesn’t have any issues at night and actually sleeps really a majority of the time for 12 hours. He does really well most days but there have been times, lately 3-4 times a week were he is super gassy and has a tummy ache and burps in the afternoon from about 3:00 till bed time at 7.
My question is…. can these medication ever have the adverse effect and cause these issues, or could it be a mixing problem….should I be mixing it different. i know the 40mg is mixed different according to Dr Phillips. I have tried reading it on the marci kids website, but frankly I don’t really understand it. I can also say my pedi will not try the 40mg. So I need to figure out if I should be mixing this different and how to do it. I do give the mylanta when needed, but need to know if I should be mixing it with this and how to do it and if you ladies think it will help with this issue.
Sorry for the long post..thank you for any help you can give.
