hi there - a friend's 10 week old has been diagnosed with reflux and has been given yet another prescription for infant gaviscon. she is reluctant to use this - does anyone know of a homeopathic remedy??

My DD2 has had cranial osteopathy which has turned her 'bad reflux' into just 'reflux'. I wish I'd taken DD1 for it as she had it terribly badly. And if it's any consolation, Gaviscon can work very well and her baby might not need it for very long as s/he grows up.

I would go and see a trained homeopath rather than try and get something off the shelf, I've had success with chinese medicine - accupressure but that was for diaharrea (can never spell it!) and poor digestion

I've had friends with similar positive feedback with cranial osteopathy.
