Gripe Water (10X150Ml) Gripe Water by Elder

What is it used for?
Gripe water is marketed to help relieve fussiness, colic, gas and stomach discomfort in babies. Its effectiveness is not well established, and different products may contain different ingredients.

How does it work?
There is no single mechanism because gripe-water formulations vary. Some ingredients may be intended to soothe digestive discomfort, but reliable benefit has not been proven.

How to take/use it
Use only the product-specific instructions and measuring device. Check the ingredients and age suitability before use. Do not give more than the recommended amount or use it as a substitute for medical advice.

Common side effects
Possible effects include loose motions, vomiting or allergic reactions. Side effects depend on the ingredients in the product.

Precautions
Consult a paediatrician before giving it to a newborn or young infant. Do not use products containing honey in children under 1 year. Avoid products containing alcohol or ingredients unsuitable for babies. Seek medical care if the baby has persistent vomiting, fever, diarrhoea, poor feeding, a swollen abdomen or unusual lethargy.
