my son has severe reflux and he was put on zantac and it never helped.we also tried reglan and it was aweful for my son, the side effects where terrible.my son was put on prevacid and after a week he was a different baby.he still spits up but the prevacid controls the acid production.I don't think that every baby needs medication but in my sons case he did.I know that without prevacid my son would be miserable.I hope this helps.
