Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Prevacid question

If your LO is on Prevacid solutabs, how do you administer the dose? 

DD started this two days ago and I'm having a hard time giving it to her. When I put the tablet in the water to dissolve as directed, it doesn't ever fully dissolve. So then I'm left with powder that gets stuck in the syringe or nipple or however I'm trying to give it to her. She'll drink the tsp of water that I dissolved the tablet in, but since there is some powder left, I'm not sure she is getting the full dose. I'm hesitant to put it in her formula because she doesn't always finish her entire bottle, so again I'm afraid she wouldn't get her full dose.

Re: Prevacid question

  • I did it on a baby spoon. It doesnt give them the full half ounce or whatever it is that they say to give with it, but he always got it down. 

    Also the dropper type of syringe (vs. the plunger) is helpful.
