A. from your history it appears that your child is having colic pain due to gas in abdomen in colic pain you can give anti colic medicines like colicaid 0.5 ml to the child and this medicine can be given maximum three or four times per day but to prevent this problem kindly do regular burping for 15 to 20 minutes.z do not kee ep the child back on the bed after one burping (all gas is not removed with one burping) during the colic episode you can do stomach massage and limb cycling movements and if the child is more than 2z months of age you can give tummy time also. advisable to learn more about it from your doctor.

A. Colic is the reason, Gastica drops are composed of simethicone, which is an anti-flatulent agent, and two essential oils, namely dill oil and fennel oil. Simethicone in the Gastica drops helps to reduce the effects of formation of gas bubbles, while the essential oils promote digestion and overall digestive health.
