Weaning baby of omeprazole
My baby is 8 months old and we’ve been tapering her off omeprazole. Last week she was down to 0.5 mL, and since then we’ve stopped it completely.
Since stopping, she’s been vomiting small amounts of watery, acid-like spit-up again. She is still having her milk, although feeding has never been great, and her bottle aversion seems to have worsened again since stopping the medication.
Has anyone experienced rebound reflux after stopping omeprazole? Did you restart the last dose (0.5 mL) and taper more slowly, or just wait it out for a week or two to see if it settles?
Would really appreciate hearing others’ experiences.
