Experience of ketotifen

DS is 10 months old and has very bad silent reflux. He's on omeprazole, and has just been prescribed ketotifen. The consultant said it should help him sleep, as a side-effect.

I would sort of love this, as he wakes 14 times a night and it's taking its toll (my marriage is suffering horrendously), but am a little worried.

Has anyone had it prescribed for their baby? Did it actually help sleep? Was the baby able to rouse his/herself if asleep face down, for example?
