Pediatrician, Gastroenterology 's  Response
Hello, I have read your question.
Colimex drops are usually advised for abdominal colic/discomfort in newborn child. I would not suggest to continue it on regular basis. If your child remains symptom free after stopping the drug, It should be discontinued.
In about 80 % of patients, single daily dose of 5 drops suffices. But if your child has no symptoms, Kindly stop it.
Regards
