Zantac questions for patients of Dr H

[Guest guest]

I am hoping some of you with Dr. H experience can help me. Matt had

his GI appointment tonight and on the good side - he gained 1.5 KG

in 6 weeks. We are thrilled. On the bad side, it is back to being

a real struggle to get him to eat and I think he is having more acid

reflux since he is coughing and clearing his throat more. The GI

said that Zantac only works for 3 weeks. He wants to take Matt off

of his evening zantac, add a small dose of prilosec (he also takes

this in the morning) for 3 weeks, and then go back to the zantac.

Have any of you done this? I am so leery of doing this, since when

Dr H added the zantac Matt really took off, but now he has plateaued.

I am so tired of forcing food down my son, I think I am losing my

mind!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for listening!
