Hello,

My 15 week old has been prescribed Baby Gaviscon today after we think she has silent reflux (we still aren’t 100% sure but points in that direction) - I was really nervous to try as I know it can cause constipation so the doctor recommended trying one satchet first for a few days and seeing how that went. We tried the first one today and it’s giving her diarrhea! It’s only a small amount & after I fed her the next time she was fine but I’m wondering if I should still use it after it’s giving her diarrhea. I’ll only be doing one satchet a day but obviously don’t want her to be dehydrated.

Thanks!
