The babies here are often treated with reglan due to reflux. One of my very slow weight gain babies was being treated with Reglan and Cimetidine Mom reported a diaper rash so terrible that even cleaning the baby with cotton balls caused bleeding and a hysterical baby. She went through a ped, 2 dermatologists, then saw another ped who suggested that these strong adult meds should not be given to babies - and she stopped them. Baby's skin improved immediately. Reflux was not improved, she felt, when she gave those meds anyways and she is very upset at not being told this might be a side effect of these drugs. As both drugs were started and stopped at the same time, I don't know which caused the rash - but yesterday another mom came to me, baby on Reglan, her anus looked very red and sore (though not as described by other mom). Is this something we should be aware of as a frequent side effect? Jeanette Panchula Trying to get back up to date after a 4 day absence to Washington (snow) [log in to unmask]
