How can this product help my baby?
Excessive crying, known as baby colic, could be due to many factors. One of the causes of colic may be not having enough good bacteria in the digestive system. Colicky infants have significantly fewer beneficial bacteria in their intestinal tract.
Nan Care Probiotic Drops, with comforting probiotic Lactobacillus reuteri, helps improve the good bacteria in a baby’s digestive system. They are the only colic drops with probiotic Lactobacillus reuteri to ease excessive crying in colicky babies (documented mainly in breast fed infants).
How many weeks/months should I continue giving these drops to my baby?
Results have been seen as early as 1 week, however, the best results have occurred at the 3 week mark. If symptoms persist you should see your doctor.
Is it ok to do 2 drops now and 3 drops in another feed during the same day?
Yes, while it is recommended to provide the dose in one feed, it is ok as long as the recommended dose (5 drops) is provided daily.
My baby does not take a full bottle at once? Can I spread the 5 drops over one day?
While it is recommended to provide the dose in one feed, it is ok as long as the recommended dose (5 drops) is provided daily. If your baby doesn’t typically take a full bottle we would not recommend you adding the Bio Gaia drops to your baby’s full bottle, because if they don’t consume the whole bottle, then you cannot know how much of the probiotic they are consuming. In order to ensure your baby receives the entire dose of the drops, you can give them on a sterile spoon or in a smaller amount of formula.

How should I store the bottle?

Once opened, how long can I leave it open?
