zantac dosages

i am pretty sure DD needs her zantac upped. She was taking five 6oz bottles at 4 hr intervals (with one in the middle of the night) but over the past few days, she will only take 3-4oz every 3-3.5 hours which is her sign of acid discomfort.

she is about 12.5-13 lbs and taking 1.1ml twice per day. wondering if it should be upped for her weight? I am hoping so Chat Icon Chat Icon

calling the doc first thing monday am.

DS is probably around 12 pounds and takes 1.1 ml as well.

Maybe she's going through a growth spurt and wants to eat more often? Not sure about the smaller bottles though. Can't hurt to ask the dr.

zantac dosages

Could she be teething? My dd stayed at the same dosage until she was 6-7 months when she no longer needed it.

Eta she was taking 1ml 3 times a day

DS spits up ALL.THE.TIME. It's constant. But the zantac doesn't prevent spit up, just neutralizes his stomach acid so he's more comfortable.
