Description
Simethicone Emulsion, Dill Oil & Fennel Oil Oral Drops is a combination pediatric formulation commonly used to relieve infantile colic, gas, bloating, and abdominal discomfort due to trapped wind. It is especially useful in babies and young children who suffer from gastrointestinal disturbances like colic and flatulence.
This medication combines the anti-foaming action of simethicone with the carminative and digestive properties of dill oil and fennel oil, providing a natural yet effective remedy for gas-related discomfort in infants and children.
Mechanism of Action:
- Simethicone is an anti-foaming agent that acts by reducing surface tension of gas bubbles in the gastrointestinal tract, causing them to coalesce and be expelled more easily, either through burping or flatulence.
- Dill Oil has carminative, antispasmodic, and mild antimicrobial properties. It helps relieve intestinal gas and smooth muscle spasms.
- Fennel Oil is known for its digestive and gas-relieving effects, promoting gastrointestinal motility and reducing discomfort caused by bloating.
The synergistic action of these three ingredients offers fast and gentle relief from colic and flatulence.
Indications:
- Infantile colic
- Flatulence and bloating
- Griping pain in infants and children
- Post-feeding abdominal discomfort
- Excessive crying due to gas or indigestion
