Relief of infant colic, gas, bloating, abdominal discomfort due to trapped wind

Simethicone is an anti-foaming agent that breaks up gas bubbles in the stomach and intestines. This helps the gas pass more easily and reduces bloating and discomfort.

Oral drops: Shake well and give the dose as advised by the pediatrician, usually after feeds and at bedtime. Can be mixed with a small amount of water or milk if needed. Do not exceed recommended dose.
