Colief Infant Colic Drops (15ml)

Description

Colief Infant Colic Drops (15ml)

Colief Infant Drops contain the naturally-occurring enzyme lactase. When added to the babies usual milk, Colief breaks down most of the lactose and makes the feed more easily digestible. Colief Infant Drops is a food supplement – not a drug or a medicine. As such it is more acceptable both to mothers and Healthcare Professionals, and does not require product license from the MHRA. Colief Infant Drops can be safely used from birth onwards. Colief should be used for as long as it takes the infant to “grow out” of its lactase deficiency, which it should do by gradually producing its own sufficiency of lactase enzyme as the gut develops – typically at around 3 – 4 months.
