I think there is no harm in giving neopeptine. As one of the ingredient Simethicone reduces flatulance and may make the baby to pass the gas easily. Other inredients are small amount of oil extracts from some indian spices.
Baby might me more sleepy possibly because of poor sleep from colic. If continues to be more sleep please get the baby checked by your paediatrician.
