zantac

1330108 tn?1333677304 I know there are several of you ladies who have had your fair share of the challenges with GERD in their infant. Help!! Ellie was born preemie and shows classic signs of GERD. I had her at the dr she is gaining weight we got the spitting up under control by slowing her feedings and sitting her upright for 20min after meals.
Avatar f tn My 18 week old baby girl has gerd although zantac has taken away the pain and carobel somewhat helps the vomiting. She is only 11lb 4oz and is in the 2nd centile. She only takes 4 5oz bottles of nutramigen 1 each day and when I try to give her more she just vomits it up due to her reflux. However she has extreme flatulence at night from 11pm right through until 7am. It is constance, is foul smelling and doesnt stop with the result neither she nor I sleep.
Avatar n tn im 6 weeks and 5 days and i also have bad gas and heartburn at night...not to the point where i throw uo or have diareah, but it does prevent me from being able to sleep...it *****, but i hope it gets better for you! hang in there!!
1330108 tn?1333677304 s safe to try infant gas drops. So we have done that and yay it helps. We also have her bassinet propped Approx 30 degree so she isn't flat on her back. BUT she had another projectile incident this evening. Mid BF session it just came pouring out with no warning. What do I do?!?  It's much more upsetting to me than her an I'm afraid to sleep at night because she still does sometimes spit up.
Avatar n tn I just happened to have gas-x in my bathroom and immediately took 2. Within one hour the gas and bloating were gone and so was the afib. I literally got on my knees and prayed that I was on the right path to health. I stopped the Metformin for a few days to give my stomach a rest and took zantac 300 twice a day. No palpitations or afib. I was amazed. I am now on Metformin ER (which has less side affects) and with it I take a zantac. I have had no afib.
Avatar f tn Im 11 weeks pregnant and just "popped". My question is how to relieve gas, pressure and bloating? I know about watching your diet and what you eat and drink, I have even tried drinking baking soda water. I am extremely uncomfortable, any opinions?
99627 tn?1301270952 My daughter is 4 weeks old and she has been having gas problems from the begining. But for the last two days it seems like gas has gotten worse. I can hear the bubles in her stomach and she has been fussier. She also spits up a lot. I took her to doctor and they gave her Zantac. From what I was describing, doctor said it sounds like Acid Reflux. I have not given her the Zantac yet. Do you think having Acid Reflux can cause so much gas? Has anyone used Zantac for their newborns?
Avatar m tn so becarefull with that one !! the belive alot of palps are triggered from trapped gas problems and gas, that pushes upwords to the chest area. as with me 99% of the time, I get a palp and its followed by a burp ! or lots of burps (gas) I take gas x pills 2 at time . this helps alot.. but palps dont seem to stop ..from what iv read online and asked a few Doctors -cardiologests , palps mostly happen from dehydration - and also eletrolites out of wack !
Avatar n tn Felt like a heart attack. Went to ER. Nothing found. They wrote it off as gas and nothing more. Since then I have had gas on and off for some time. 2013, for unrelated reasonsThen later was found on an EKG To have an arrythmia. Got a cardiac ablation. Hasn't stopped the arrythmia but they said it was the non life-threatening type. After surgery, still had lot of gas. It eventually subsided.
Avatar f tn or getting on all fours and rocking .. sounds crazy but 2 ladies suggested that to me a few days ago and I have bn wonderful every since ..
Avatar f tn There are other meds out there (not sure if they are all FDA approved for infant usage, though so you must discuss with your Dr but when the risks outweight the benefits they will oftentimes use the med) .. Zantac and other supressors are a thought .. they can be given up to 3X a day with Mylanta inbetween if your Dr. agrees .. A Pedi GI may be the way to go at this point .. this is there speciality and they are more liberal with the meds working with you. How are his poops?
Avatar f tn In the beginning we tried Similac, but caused serious constipation. Then Enfamil caused serious gas pains. FINALLY , I asked our pedi and they highly recommended Gerber. It's amazing!

Avatar n tn Mylanta/maylox; tums; milk; gas-x occasionally; and ..... dang forgot my last idea... Ill get back to ya.
Avatar f tn I take zantac 75 also&it has turned into my best friend. Like she said above it only gets worse.
Avatar f tn I'm 30+4 and been having that as well. I'm taking zantac and trying to have as much dairy products as possible, they say that helps...
Avatar f tn I was born with acid relfex and I've had it my whole life, the doctor I had when I was a baby overdosed me on zantac which caused me to have pulmonary, lung, and more stomach issues. So I'm wondering could that have long term effects because I'm still dependent on medicine to keep me from being sick and I wanted to know if there is cause for a malpractice suit?
Avatar n tn We are trying him with all the usual treatments, - gaviscon, omeprozole, zantac, domperidon... you name it...- and he is responding to non of these, which is quite normal, some babies don't and just have to suffer til they grow out of it, and we can help as much as poss keeping them upright etc. His stools are totally liquid - understandably, (though usually there is some gritty bits in other babies I've looked after).
Avatar f tn Not a pregnancy question but i need some input i just had my baby june 27 and hes been home since monday he seems to have real bad colic & gas and i hate seeing him in pain have any of you ladies experienced/experiencing this if so how did you help it?
Avatar f tn Also after I eat dinner, I get super bloated and have really bad gas pains. I can feel the gas pressure under my ribs. Any other time I eat I feel perfectly fine. Anyone else experience this? Any way to get relief? I've just been going to bed right after I eat because I hurt so bad.
4927707 tn?1361144882 I have no other symptoms, no fever, chills, no elevated heart rate or bp. I do suffer from GERD and take 40mg of prilosec and 150 mg of Zantac as needed up to 2xs daily. I do have trapped gas in my chest a good bit and use gas-x for it. I did have upper gi series that came back unremarkable outside of fatty liver. Blood work was normal outside of slightly elevated ast/alt, hep was negative. My question is two fold.....
Avatar f tn Zantac and time work great. My doctor said taking zantac 2x daily is fine with time.
Avatar f tn I take Zantac 150 twice a day and get gas. It's just the acid settling and leaving your body.
Avatar f tn the doctors put on prelosec, zantac, and prozac thinking it was do to anxiety. But it has not been working. We saw another doctor and he put him on meds. for abdominal migraine. That is not working either. The syptoms are worse around 4:00pm . He trys to relief it by going to the bathroom. But most on the time it does not work. He does burp and pass gas with this syptom. I am starting to think it is something really bad. He sometime cries because the nausea is so bad and he turns white.
