dreamangelx says "Great for babies with gas" about Mylicon Infants' Gas Relief Drops - Dye Free

My son had lots of gas when he was an infant and nothing relived him. We tried regulr formula, soy based formula and finally were successful with the pre digested formula (Similac Alimntum Advance). A GI specialist also prescribed my son Zantac. While I was not comfr=ortable giving my son Zantac, my pediatrician did recomment mylicon very highly, I tried it and it was great. We used to joke around and call it his appetizer (because the doctor strongly recommended that we give it to him before his formula). There are definitely some cons about Infan't Mylicon. If you have a very gassy baby, most likely you'll be giving this to your baby close to as often if not as often as the package's recommended maximum. I didn't like to give it to my son a lot but when he needed it, I did. This product saved my son (and us!) from some sleepless nights and contributed to him being a very happy baby rather than a very fussy baby in pain.

lughseigh says "Works wonders" about Mylicon Infants' Gas Relief Drops - Dye Free

If you are concerned with dye allergies and gas relief, this is perfect. I prefer to use dye free products with my infant who seems to have chronic gas since she started solid foods, and also before we changed her formula to lactose-free. She sometimes wakes in the night and I give her these drops. At 10 months, she knows the taste and that it is going to make her tummy better. Off to sleep she goes, and...well, her relief is apparent. ;-)

teenymarie says "Better for smaller babies" about Mylicon Infants' Gas Relief Drops - Dye Free

When my daughter was a small baby, she used to drink her bottle so fast that she would suck in air and get horrible gas pains. She would scream for hours at a time. We tried Mylicon gas relief drops when she was a couple months old. They helped her tremendously! They work really fast so it only takes a few minutes for babies to feel better. It only takes a small amount in the dropper so you don't have a bunch of medicine to force down either. The dropper comes in lid of the bottle, and it has two hash marks for the different doses that depend on weight. These drops were a lifesaver for about six months of our lives. The dropper is a little hard to read sometimes, and it was difficult to get the correct amount into it because of the top. I did also notice that when my daughter got older, at around eight months they didn't seem to help her as much but she also didn't need them as often either.

natsmom2007 says "These drops are great for gassy babies" about Mylicon Infants' Gas Relief Drops - Dye Free

After my child was very gassy. A friend of mine said have you ever used these mylicon drops I said no so she went to the store and picked them up and brought them to me after using them once I couold tell a difference. I do recommend the dye free drops they do not leave pink all over the bibs and towels. About a month later my son was diagnossed with acid reflux and these drops did help but he needed something stronger so they put him on baby zantac and this helped until he started eating solids and now he doesnt use anything

proud-mommy-of-2 says "I wouldn't be caught without 'em!" about Mylicon Infants' Gas Relief Drops - Dye Free

Mylicon Infant Gas Relief drops are a lifesaver! If it weren't for these gas drops I would be spending a lot of nights walking the floors and a lot of days begging for just one night of peaceful sleep. When your baby gets gas, especially from sucking air out of their bottle, they can't get the rest that they need, simply because their little tummy is full of gas that can't be released. That gas bubble causes them to be irritable. Mylicon Infant Gas Relief drops work almost instantly but sometimes can take up to thirty minutes to work. Mylicon allows the gas to be released from baby's tummy. Mylicon comes with a screw on medicine dispencer top with dosage measurment up the side of the dropper. Mylicon also is flavorful, making it easier for baby to swallow it rather than spit it back out. Mylicon is gentle enough for baby to take before each feeding, therefore making it easier for baby and Mommy to rest!

fate4747 says "DOESN'T WORK AT ALL" about Mylicon Infants' Gas Relief Drops - Dye Free

fate4747 — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 19:51:59 GMT

WE USED THE MYLICON DROPS WITH BOTH OF MY SONS AND HAD NO SUCCESS AT ALL. MY FIRST BORN ONLY HAD A SHORT BOUT OF DIGESTIVE ISSUES ALTHOUGH THE SECOND ONE HAS HAD MORE PROBLEMS. WE TRIED USING THE MYLICON TO HELP ALLEVIATE GASSINESS AND INSTEAD OF HELPING WITH THE GAS, MY SON DEVELOPED AN AVERSION TO IT AND BEGAN THROWING UP EVERYTIME WE GAVE IT HIM. IT DIDN'T HELP WITH THE GAS AT ALL. IT ONLY CAUSED MORE PROBLEMS AS WE HAD TO CHANGE AND BATH HIM EVERYTIME HE THREW UP FROM IT. EVENTUALLY WE SWITCHED HIS FORMULA AND NOW DO NOT HAVE TO DEPEND ON THE MYLICON. HIS GAS ISSUES ARE MUCH LESS AND IS NOTHING THAT WE CAN'T HANDLE. I DO BELIEVE THAT IT ALL DEPENDS ON YOUR CHILD WITH THIS PRODUCT. IT DIDN'T WORK FOR US BUT OTHERS SWEAR BY IT. TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR IF YOU ARE USING THIS PRODUCT TO MAKE SURE YOU ARE DOSING CORRECTLY. I ALSO BELIEVE IT IS NOT A GREAT VALUE FOR THE MONEY THAT IT COST US.

hummingbird82 says "Life Saver" about Mylicon Infants' Gas Relief Drops - Dye Free

hummingbird82 — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 20:38:32 GMT

This product is the only one I would use on my child whenever she would have gas issues. It always worked great. I always preferred the dye free kind. It's less likely to stain if you get it on their clothes. I even used it on my nephew when he was three years old and it worked great for him. Took his tummy troubles away immediately....

crazyeasyjoy says "possibly made our night worse" about Mylicon Infants' Gas Relief Drops - Dye Free

crazyeasyjoy — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 18:36:41 GMT

we tried them b/c our daughter was fussy the other day. Her fussiness went away, but then she woke up like every hour (instead of sleeping her usual 5-6 hours) acting like she was hungry and farting a lot. Then, the next morning she had three very loose bm's within a couple hours. I'm not positive it was the drops, but the drops are the only thing we changed that night. I didnt think there were any side effects of the drops, so it could just be a coincidence. Since then, she's been fine, but we probably wont use them again unless there is a really bad night.

I think even if they did work without possible side effects, they are really expensive. I couldnt imagine putting those drops in every bottle. But I suppose its worth it if your baby is colicky.

coqui77 says "Mylicon = sanity" about Mylicon Infants' Gas Relief Drops - Dye Free

coqui77 — Tue, 17 Mar 2009 00:59:32 GMT

Mylicon is great!! My pediatrician recommended this with my now eight year old and I keep it on hand - four kids later. It does not harm them , even if you give too much. The best kind is the dye free b/c inevitably, using the pink one, it will spill on something. I didn't know that a lot of the crying could be gas, especially when I thought I was burping the child. Sometimes even breastfed babies have gas, even after burping them. Mylicon works on all that and doesn't harm them. ...

tanya8105 says "Mylicon Gas Drops save the night." about Mylicon Infants' Gas Relief Drops - Dye Free

tanya8105 — Wed, 04 Feb 2009 22:33:46 GMT

Mylicon gas drops have definitely saved a couple of nights for us. When our son is gassy and upset these drops do wonders. I was unaware of them when I had my daughter and we were given some of these at our baby shower for our son. I thought I would never use them. I was wrong.

When your child is fussy and the rocking and walking do nothing to help, it makes you upset and anxious to find some way to relieve your baby's pain. These Mylicon drops help ease your worries when it comes to an upset and gassy baby.

The dye free version is even better so that your baby's clothes are not stained when they spit some of the drops out.

Mylicon drops are the best. My daughter was one of the fussiest babys I had ever seen bu i had a friend recomend these to me and they worked.

Mylicon gas drops are the only drops I would ever consider to use. They work fast and efficient to relieve baby from the terrible cramps and uncomfortable pain that gas can give a baby. When buying a baby gift, I always buy Mylicon gas drops as part of my package....
