He was prescribed zantac at about 2 weeks old. I was breastfeeding and he was having severe stomach aches. It seemed to help. I recently switched to formula when he was a little over a month old. He has not had a bowel movement on his own since. He has went almost a full month without. I do not know if the constipation is caused by the formula, which we have switched four times, or the zantac. I am scheduled to see a specialist in one week. I have tried every method...sugar water, karo syrup, apple juice, prune juice, even baby food(prunes and applesauce). NOne of these methods worked for us. I use glycerin suppositories for children and only use a little at a time. I have also used the rectal thermometer. The thermometer takes a little time, but it will work. The glycerin suppositories work every time within minutes. Also, they do not have any medicine in them and your child should not become dependent on them. They simply make it easier for the child to go. I am lost in this situation too. I want to stop the zantac, but I am not sure if that is the underlying cause of his constipation. Maybe i will have more insight after I visit the specialist! Good luck, i know how annoying this problem is My son is 2 months old. He was prescribed zantac at about 2 weeks old.
