Infant Colic

Colic Calm - a natural
homeopathic combination for infant colic symptoms.
-
Dosing:
On the box is says to give up to 1/2 teaspoon but many babies find relief
with just a 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon. We suggest that you start out by giving
Colic Calm as needed basis when the baby starts to cry.
You do need to give it as quickly
as possible on baby's symptoms of upset. Don’t be afraid to redose if the
baby is not improving after 30 minutes or so. A 6 week old baby can have as
much as 6 doses of 1/2 teaspoon each per a day. Many babies find relief with
1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon as the dose, so start with the lower dose and work up.
Stop giving it as symptoms subside, and repeat again at other times of
digestive stress for baby.
