A member asked:
Will putting rice in formula help a four week old with silent reflux? already on zantac (ranitidine)
A doctor has provided 1 answer
May constipate: Adding rice cereal to formula can cause new issues such as constipation. Often trying a different formula may help such as lactose free type. Frequent burping and slower bottle nipples may help. Make sure weight is checked regularly with well baby visits.
