Abstract

Proton pump inhibitors are increasingly being used to treat infants with crying and/or irritability based on the assumption that these symptoms are attributable to gastroesophageal reflux. However, the data from a systematic review of randomized controlled trials do not support the use of proton pump inhibitors to decrease infant crying and irritability.
