Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. You should be not given Domperidone for acidity problem. It is given in order to relieve nausea and vomiting; to increase the transit of food through the stomach (as a prokinetic agent through increase in gastrointestinal peristalsis)
I suggest phytotherapy: boil one cup of water. To this add 1 tea spoon of Aniseed (Saunf). Cover and leave for 2 hours. Strain the water. When she will take 30ml 2-3 times a day between meals it prevents acidity.
Kind regards
Wish your baby good health.
