Homeopathbuff? Silica for baby reflux advice please

Hi,
I have read a few of your posts on silica for infants suffering reflux... my girl is six months and has had reflux since about six weeks... it did seem to subside for a while, but now it seems it is back with vengeance, lots of vomits after feeds and also the silent reflux where she swallows what is brought up back down... is causing a lot of night wakings, gave her panadol last night in desperation and she slept all night, not sure if this was because her pain was relieved or because it may have made her drowsy...?

She is formula fed, I am wondering with the silica, how do u adminster it?? or is it in liquid form or something??

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Does anyone know what the common age is for reflux to die down or not bother babies so much?? I feel so sorry for her as she is so tired and rubbing her eyes but keeps burping and then swallowing and can't get any sleep.
