I've heard of Zantac. She should ask the doctor first if she can give the baby that. I give my DS mylicon drops when he's gassy.

zantac is for reflux not gas.
She can try bicycling his legs while he is on his back, hold him in the "football" hold, gripe water works for some people too.

Isn't Acid reflux and gas all related?
