Velgastin® oral suspension for flatulence, 30 ml

Velgastin® - immediate help for flatulence

Velgastin® Flatulence Suspension is a defoamer with the active ingredient Simeticon.The drops work quickly and are very suitable for treating flatulence in babies - also commonly known as three-month colic - which is often accompanied by abdominal pain, a hard stomach and crying for hours.Velgastin® quickly alleviates the symptoms and well-being can return.

Bloating is normal every now and then.However, if they become stronger or last longer, it can become unpleasant.Babies in particular suffer from the pressure in their stomachs, which causes problems for their still very sensitive digestion.The result is audible: they cry and are difficult to calm down.A stressful situation for baby and parents.

Such unpleasant flatulence can occur because too much air gets stuck in a kind of foam in the stomach and intestines and can no longer escape properly.The stomach feels bloated.This is exactly where Velgastin® comes into play when it comes to flatulence with the proven active ingredient Simeticon: It has a defoaming effect by quickly causing the foam bubbles in the intestine to burst.The released air can be transported away naturally - the symptoms quickly subside.Simeticon is very well tolerated and therefore also very good for infants, small children, pregnant women, breastfeeding women and older people.

Velgastin® is vegan, lactose-free, gluten-free, no dyes, no gelatin and no parabens.

Velgastin® soothes stomach, baby and everyday flatulence

If a baby is bothered by flatulence or colic, the baby belly usually feels hard and bloated.The abdominal pain causes the infant to cry for a long time - usually in the evening hours.These symptoms can occur more frequently from the second week after birth.A possible cause of flatulence and colic in infants is swallowing air, for example when eating, drinking and crying or in stressful and exciting situations.This air presses into the baby's tummy and bloats it up - resulting in stomach pain and crying.If such flatulence occurs frequently or over a longer period of time, it quickly becomes tiring for the parents.In addition to classic home remedies such as gentle massages, heat or flying grip, Velgastin® provides quick help and calming for the stomach, baby and everyday life.
