Dear Mr XXXXXXX
If the baby is having colicky pain in abdomen which is presented as excessive crying without any cause (other things like hunger , wet diapers ,redness in anal region , are ruled out as cause ) in such cases colicaid drops can be given.
It will be helpful if you could provide me with the following additional information
1. What are symptoms of baby ?
2. What is the indication for which you want to give colicaid drops
Awaiting your response
Take care
