Dentinox Colic Drops are a gentle treatment for colic in babies. These drops can be used from birth, and help to ease symptoms that may cause colic without irritating their delicate stomachs. This helps to keep your baby comfortable and may stop their crying in the process.
Colic is a condition where your baby cries a lot without there being an obvious cause for it. Every baby cries, but if your little one is regularly crying for more than 3 hours a day then they may have colic. Doctors aren’t entirely sure what causes colic, but one theory is that babies suffer with colic because they find it more difficult to digest their food when they’re young, which could cause them pain, discomfort, and trapped wind.
Dentinox Colic Drops contain an active ingredient called dimeticone, which helps to release any trapped wind your baby has in their tummy. This helps to ease pain and indigestion that may cause colic, while remaining gentle on their delicate tummy.

This especially applies if your baby is taking levothyroxine or any other medications that are used to treat a thyroid disorder, as it these drops may weaken the effect of their treatment.
