Do not use this product if there are kidney problems or sensitivity to the preservative E217 and E219. Keep out of the reach of children.
Swaddling babies in a warm blanket and rocking them back and forth may calm fussiness.
Soothing background noises, including calming music or white noise, can help.
A warm bath can have a calming effect.
Make sure your baby is upright during feedings to ease gassiness. If you feed your baby from a bottle, be sure to stop feeding as soon as the bottle is empty, so your baby doesn’t swallow air from their bottle.
Frequent burping may help reduce swallowed air, too. Stop a few times during the feeding and help your child to burp with gentle pats on the back.
Colic symptoms occasionally may be caused by a particular formula. Some babies are more sensitive to formulas containing cow’s milk.
