I know this is a long shot, but im hoping I might just get lucky and someone on here knows the answer! πŸ™πŸΌ

My daughter is trialing a medication called Erthromycin, to see if her symptoms (nausea after eating) could be caused by delayed gastric emptying.

We have noticed she is eating a bit more since taking this medication. She is underweight, so this is great news.

We are obviously keen to know if this improvement is coincidental, or placebo effect, or that the medicine is actually helping her.

Her prescription ran out which meant, after 1 month of taking the medication morning and night, she had to miss two doses.

Since missing the second dose, she has developed some increased nausea again after eating.

Im wondering if anyone knows if that would be expected with missing two doses, or if this medication has an accumulative effect so would still be doing its job despite the two missed doses??

i hope the question makes sense? We have a review with the doctor but not for another 10 days and I’d love to know if this is a sign the medication is working. πŸ™πŸΌπŸ™πŸΌ
