Infacol is an antiflatulent which means that it helps to bring up wind or air trapped in the tummy. It can be given to babies to relieve griping pain, infant colic or wind due to trapped air.
The pain associated with colic may be caused by the build-up of small gas bubbles trapped in your baby’s tummy. Simeticone, the active ingredient in Infacol, helps all the little trapped gas bubbles join into bigger bubbles which your baby can easily bring up as wind.
Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them.
Side effects with Infacol are uncommon. However, in some rare cases, patients may experience allergic reactions to simeticone or the other ingredients.
If you or your baby has any side effects, stop using this product and seek immediate medical assistance immediately.
Do not use this product if you or your baby are allergic to any of the listed ingredients.
Do not use this product if your baby is being treated for a thyroid condition.
Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking this medicine if your baby is taking any other medicines, including medicines obtained without a prescription.
Please read the patient information leaflet before using this medicine.
Keep out of the reach and sight of children.
