Carle B asked:


I was just told that my 11 day old baby has Acid Reflux. What kind of medicines do they usually give babies for that and how do you give it to them?
The Doctors said he has Acid Reflux. I am wondering what medicines are given. Currently he pukes up every thing. We’ve tried all brand of formulas including soy and lactose free. Also tried breast milk. He pukes it all up.

    Smaller feeds at regular intervals will help.
    Babies can have Gaviscon, But I’m not quite sure what age. Probably not that young.

    If they are on formula there are anti-reflux combinations available.
