DD2 is on Losec (1mg/kg) for reflux. We missed a dose last night (5:30pm) by accident (I made it up, set it down and forgot about it). I gave her the normal dose this morning (9:00am) instead. She has been suffering from reflux all day and now will not settle for the night.

Should I have returned to her normal dose time this evening? I thought that might overdose and had planned to set 9am as her new dose time, but she really seems to be suffering.

If anyone has any experience or advice to offer it'd be gratefully received.

You could check with the pharmacy. My DS1 was on omeprazole for 18 months and I don't think it would harm to return to normal dose time. I don't think you can "overdose" on it like that. Best to check with pharmacy though.
