I am wondering what meds are out there for reflux. So far my LO has been on Zantac and it's doing squat. I'd like something to talk over with the pedi tomorrow. Thanks !
Ranitidine, which is the generic form of Zantac. My DD had terrible reflux until she was put on it. It's slowly starting to return though, but I think that's just because she needs a adjustment on her dose.
I hope you find something that works soon!

DS is on Axid, which the pedi says is like Zantac but tastes better. I don't think it's doing anything so she called in a rx for Prilosec that we're starting to try today.

My LO has been on Zantac for the past few weeks. At first it seemed to be working well, but the reflux seems to have gotten worse the past week. We've upped the dosage, but hasn't really helped. If it doesn't get better we're going to talk with the pedi about a different medicine. BTW, our we use the non-flavored Zantac and our LO will take it without a fuss....but I think that's pretty rare.
My LO is on ranatidine which seemed to help at first but now things seem to have gotten worse. The flavor is also terrible. Smells like strong, minty, toothpaste. She hates it!
