I know that the meds that we can buy vary enormously between our respective countries but in England, I always used to give gassy piggies 2 or 3 mls of baby gripe water.

Overseas members will probably be saying what the heck is that. It is made using the herb dill and was widely used for babes in England. One of my sons got through bottles of it as a babe but now we have the baby colic drops, I keep one called Infacol in the piggy first aid box. It is based on simeticone ( different spelling to the US ingredient but probably the same thing ).

The piggy dose of this remedy is 1ml. and it can be repeated during the day. Roscoe had a nasty tummy upset recently and can testify to its efficacy.

Penny and the Piggyfriends, paws still crossed for Hershey.
