Infacol Colic Relief – 85ml

Description

Infacol Colic Relief – 85ml

Infacol Colic Relief is a gentle, sugar-free liquid designed to relieve infant colic, griping pain, and trapped wind. It is suitable for use from birth and can be given before each feed to help reduce discomfort caused by gas build-up in your baby’s tummy.

⸻

How It Works

The active ingredient, simeticone, is an anti-foaming agent that works by bringing together the small gas bubbles trapped in your baby’s digestive system, forming larger bubbles that are easier to bring up or pass. This helps to relieve the pressure and discomfort associated with colic and wind. Simeticone is not absorbed into the body, so it works locally in the gut and passes through the system harmlessly.

⸻

Directions for Use

Infacol is given to infants before each feed. The recommended dose is 0.5 ml (one full dropper) before each feed. The dose can be increased to 1 ml if needed. Use the dropper provided to place the liquid directly into your baby’s mouth. It is important to use Infacol consistently before every feed to get the best results, as the effect builds up over time. Always read the patient information leaflet before use. If you are unsure about the correct dose, speak to your PillSorted pharmacist.
