reflux/zantac question
my daughter was diagnosed with reflux and started zantac yesterday, she was wonderful all day today. no crying, no spitting up or gagging, took a ton of naps. but tonight has been crying in pain, spit up once and uncomfortable when eating. does it take time to work or is the zantac not working. i hate seeing her in pain. she is only one month old. thank you for your help

Yes, it takes a while for it to work. My doctor told us to give it 4 weeks to take full effect.

It took at least a week for the meds with my girls to see some kind of improvement.
Hang in there

It does sometimes take a while. We started with Zantac, but it actually made DD worse somehow We then switched her to Axid and it made a world of difference.

My DD's GI doctor always tells me to give zantac 20 minutes before feedings.

It takes a few days to work - I hope she feels better soon!
