No mother will remain indifferent if her child screams incessantly. And all the encouraging phrases, like "Until three months all the children are shouting," can not calm down and force them to accept the idea that there is nothing to be helped. Indeed, the most common problem in infants until three months, if there are no other diagnoses, is colic colic. This is the opinion of all experts. The most recommended and advertised drug in such cases is Espumizan. Newborn it is suitable for all parameters and instructions. While an analogue of Espumizan can not always be given to a baby, since some drugs have a number of contraindications, for example, age restriction, the number of acceptable techniques, etc.
The causes of anxiety of newborns can be very diverse.
But in the period up to three months, the main task of the baby is to learn how to eat and digest food. It is no wonder that the greatest burden goes just to the intestines. So do not try to immediately and thoroughly rid the child of anxiety in the tummy - this will deprive the baby's organism of the necessary practice for habituation and adaptation. Such excessive care will only make you worse by provoking others for the future, but more serious problems. From this point of view, the recommendation of many pediatricians is the most accurate. Its essence lies in the fact that it is not necessary to give medicines to newborns from the first day. It is necessary, as far as possible, to cope with the usual means of our grandmothers: stroking and warming the tummy, raising the baby after feeding, adherence to the mother feeding the diet and so on. Yes, and sometimes the baby needs to be yelled: how else can he learn to express his emotions and communicate?
But, I agree, there are cases when you can not do without medical help.
It is medical! Because, for example, you can serve dill and water yourself. By the way, this fennel in this form is nothing more than a national analogue of Espumizan. But if the problem is much more serious, then without an analysis, a diagnosis and a prescription, giving something to the baby is very risky. You do not want to make from your child a guinea pig and check on it the action of all kinds of drugs? Only when the pediatrician prescribes medication for intestinal colic, it is necessary to ask what is best and what to stop on. Not the fact that you will not even try one analogue of Espumizan. But if practically nothing will help, it can only mean one thing - the problem is hidden in a completely different place. In such cases, absorbents, probiotics or even complex treatment are more effective.
Another reason why young mothers are looking for analogs of a doctor prescribed medication is a noticeable difference in price. How much does Espumizan cost compared to other drugs in this category? On average, the cost of one fl oon in 30 ml ranges from 250 to 400 rubles (in the Ukrainian market - 30-60 hryvnia). By the way, the analogue of Espumizan will not always be cheaper. A vivid example is "Infakol". But there is also a cheaper drug, the favorite of many moms is "Bobotik". It is worth noting that the composition of some of these drugs is almost not different. Therefore here the last word always remains for mum.
And in the end I would like to add that Espumizan is not only for newborns, it is also available in capsules for adults, but there are just so many difficulties and doubts. Do not be ill, and good luck to you!
