About Meftal-Spas Neo Drops

Meftal-Spas Neo Drops is a drops suspension designed to relieve excess gas, bloating, and belly discomfort in infants and children. It works by breaking up gas bubbles in the gut so they can be passed more easily, relieving painful pressure. Doctors commonly recommend it for babies experiencing colic or trapped wind.

This medicine is typically taken after meals and at bedtime, or as directed by your child's doctor. You can give the drops directly into your child's mouth, or mix them with cool water, infant formula, or breast milk to make it easier to take. Adjusting feeding techniques, such as keeping your baby upright during feeds and burping them frequently, can also support better digestive results.

While this medicine is generally very well tolerated, some infants might experience mild loose stools or spit up. If you notice any unusual signs, such as an allergic reaction with skin rash, swelling of the face, or breathing difficulties, stop giving the medicine and contact your doctor immediately.

Talk to your doctor before using Meftal-Spas Neo Drops if your child has any known allergies, chronic illnesses, or is taking other medications. Do not give this medicine if your child has a known allergy to any of the ingredients in the suspension.

Since this medicine works locally in the gut, it has very few interactions, but it may decrease the absorption of certain thyroid medications if taken at the same time. While this paediatric formulation is meant for infants and children, always consult your doctor or pharmacist if you have questions about using it for other age groups.

How Meftal-Spas Neo Drops Works

Meftal-Spas Neo Drops contains simethicone, an antiflatulent medicine that helps relieve gas, bloating, and discomfort caused by trapped air in the stomach and intestines. Meftal-Spas Neo Drops works by reducing the surface tension of small gas bubbles in the digestive tract, causing them to combine into larger bubbles. These larger bubbles can then be passed more easily through burping or passing gas, helping relieve bloating, abdominal discomfort, and pressure. Meftal-Spas Neo Drops is not absorbed into the bloodstream. It works locally within the stomach and intestines and is eliminated from the body unchanged, making it suitable for relieving gas-related discomfort, including in babies when used as directed. Together, these actions help relieve trapped gas, reduce bloating and abdominal discomfort, and make it easier for the body to expel excess gas.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Feed in a semi-upright position: Keeping your baby slightly upright during feeds can reduce the amount of air swallowed.
  • Burp your baby regularly: Burp your baby halfway through and again after each feed to help release swallowed air.
  • Use the correct bottle teat size: If bottle-feeding, ensure the nipple flow is appropriate, as a flow that is too fast or too slow may increase air swallowing.
  • Try gentle tummy massage: Massage your baby's abdomen in a clockwise direction or gently move their legs in a cycling motion to help trapped gas pass more easily.
  • Monitor your diet if breastfeeding: If you are breastfeeding, consider keeping a food diary to identify any foods that may be associated with increased gassiness in your baby, and discuss your observations with your paediatrician.
