Hi Caz - what is the problem with your baby? Dentinox is a brand and they make several products for different ailments. Let me know and I'll try and advise.

Ok, I'm assuming that you have been trying to give infacol so therefore your baby has colic, and that you can't get your baby to take it from the dropper?

Firstly, the trick with the dropper is to slide it down the side of their mouth quite far back - the the back of their tongue, so they can't push it out and they swallow it more easily. This is also a good trick for giving calpol and other medicines down the line.

I've looked online at the dentinox drops and it says you can give it with or after the feed. So, if you're bottle feed, warm you bottle first, then just add the drops in and tip it upside down a few times to mix it up (don't shake it as this will make bubbles that will make the colic worse). Make sure you only put the amount of milk in the bottle that your baby is likely to drink, otherwise they won't get the full dosage of the drops.

Hope that helps. [smile

That's what I thought Puppy (but knew they did teething gel as well). Looked online and they also do colic drops, which is what Caz obviously has.
