Enzyme OD?

What do you experience when you've "ODed" on enzymes? We've recently (2-3wks ago) upped Ellie's enzyme dose from 10 "beads" to 3 to 4 full capsules per feeding. She vomited twice last night and once today....still passing loose stool and acting like she feels okay. What is normal baby vs CF?!

I asked our NP about this today. For my 3 month old daughter....2-4 Capsules is normal. She said that we would experience constipation, just like Jessica said, if we are on too high of a dose. The only real risk from taking too many Enzymes is Pancreatic Failure, and that's only a risk when taking upwards of 50 or 60 a day. So the puking, is PROBABLY just a coincidence, and one that I would definitely get checked out!

Have you changed any meds lately, introduced any new foods, or been in an environment where she could've caught a cold?

Thanks for your replies. No new foods/meds...and she's acting fine otherwise. So frustrating! <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif" border="0">
