Dear Katherine,
Propulsid has been pulled from the market and is only available through sub-specialists on a compassionate-use protocol. Unfortunately, there is no good substitute available right now for the SMALL MINORITY of children who do have severe reflux resulting in serious medical problems. Those few children/babies who are treated with Propulsid must have EKG's and blood work to monitor them and should only be treated under the watchful eye of a Pediatric Gastroenterologist.
Sincerely,
Kate
