Your child should continue with regular activities. A diary will be given to you to record your child’s symptoms (crying, coughing, pain, reflux, etc.) during the study. You will also be asked to record meal times, sleeping and any other information you would like to share with your provider. This information helps us determine if reflux is responsible for your child’s symptoms. During the study, your child should not take a bath or shower, chew gum or eat hard candy, and carbonated drinks should be avoided.
