Losec how long

Losec reduces the amount of acid that the stomach makes and it can take a couple of days to really start having a noticable effect. And if she her throat has been burnt by the acid rising up it make take a couple of days to heal.

We were always told 1-2 weeks too

Hi, we have just been to see the paediatrician who has diagnosed Floyd with reflux.....he has given him losec in capsules as he said this works best. Is this the norm?

The capsules are also 20% more effective than the suspension and the suspension tastes absolutely vile, so bad that it is almost impossible to get them to sollow it, it was design initially for use via a nasalgastro tube. The other thing is that the suspension has a side effect of making them vomit shortly after taking it. So there is kind of no point if firstly you can't get it in your baby and then what you manage to get them to sollow they then vomit.
Give the granules in a little pureed pear or apple, don't worry that it is solids, it is basically acting like the syrup most children medicines are put in (like pamol). The acid also helps make the granules more effective.
