A member asked:

Is there a more natural alternative to treating a 7 week old with nexium for reflux?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Thickening feeds: Some infants reflux less if you add formula powder to their feeds & prop them upright after feeding. However, the nexium just slows the acid production in the stomach & lessens the pain when it happens. There is no "natural" alternative med that I am aware of that can do this.
