Description
Biotic Colic Drops are specially formulated to relieve colic, gas, and digestive discomfort in infants and young children. These drops help soothe the digestive tract and reduce symptoms such as bloating, stomach cramps, and excessive crying due to gas buildup.
The formulation typically combines natural digestive aids, probiotics, or simethicone, depending on the brand, to support healthy digestion and improve gut comfort in babies.
