Q.

My baby is 16 days old and extremely gassy as she is on both breast feed and top feed (similac advanced formula). Is colic aid better or cyclopam drops to help her deal with constipation and the gas ?

A. Gas related problem is very common in small babies because of many factor including imbmaturity of the gut . other factors include cow's muilk introduction before 1 year of age , bottle feeding, not giving proper burping after each feed. Digestive enzymes like aglozyme drops can be given as suggested by doctor in proper dose for reliving of such symptoms .

A. Colic aid is going to be a better choice for you to use out of the two that would I would say because the other one is only for stomach pain and this one is going to deal with stomach pain gas and most of the time constipation can also be dealt with with the medication
