Delpocalm Drops is used to reduce stomach pain, spasms, bloating, and symptoms of IBS  in children. It contains Dicyclomine and Simethicone, primarily given to relieve spasmodic abdominal pain, bloating, and general pain-related discomfort of the lower abdomen. It reduces spasms and pain by relaxing the muscles and blocking certain chemical messengers in the brain responsible for causing the sensation of pain. Also, it treats bloating and releases stomach gas more efficiently. Thus, it helps reduce muscle contractions and pain by acting on the intestine's inner lining, allowing gas bubbles to come together and relieving cramps and spasms. It may cause some common side effects, such as dryness in the mouth, dizziness, weakness, nervousness, sleepiness, and nausea.

About Delpocalm Drops

Delpocalm Drops is a paediatric medicine used to treat stomach spasms, bloating, and gas in infants and children. It helps relieve the painful abdominal cramping often associated with infantile colic. By relaxing the muscles in the digestive tract and breaking up trapped gas bubbles, it brings much-needed relief to distressed babies.

Your doctor will guide you on how often to give this medicine, which is typically given before feeds. For the best results, it is important to give it consistently at the scheduled times as recommended by your child's paediatrician. Simple feeding adjustments, such as burping your baby frequently, can also support the action of this medicine.

Most babies tolerate this medicine well, but some may experience mild side effects like drowsiness or a dry mouth. While these are usually harmless, you should contact your doctor immediately if your child develops any breathing difficulties, severe sleepiness, or signs of an allergic reaction.

Talk to your doctor before starting this medicine if your child has any underlying health conditions, especially problems with their kidneys, liver, or heart. Do not give this medicine to babies under six months of age, as it can cause serious breathing risks in very young infants.

Let your paediatrician know if your child is taking any other medicines, as certain drugs can interact and increase the risk of side effects. Always consult your doctor or pharmacist before combining this medicine with other treatments, even over-the-counter remedies.

How Delpocalm Drops Works

Delpocalm Drops contains dicyclomine and simethicone, which work together to relieve stomach cramps, colic, and gas-related discomfort. Dicyclomine is an antispasmodic medicine that relaxes the smooth muscles of the stomach and intestines. It blocks the action of a chemical messenger called acetylcholine, preventing painful muscle contractions and relieving abdominal cramps and colic. Simethicone is an anti-foaming agent that helps break down trapped gas bubbles in the stomach and intestines. It reduces the surface tension of gas bubbles, allowing them to combine into larger bubbles that can be passed more easily through burping or passing gas. Together, these two active ingredients provide effective relief from both intestinal spasms and gas-related abdominal discomfort.

What if I have taken an overdose of Delpocalm Drops

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Burp your baby regularly: Ensure you burp your infant mid-feed and after feeds to help release swallowed air before it moves deep into the intestines.
  • Check bottle nipples: If bottle-feeding, make sure the nipple hole is the right size. A hole that is too small or too large can cause the baby to swallow excess air.
  • Hold the baby upright: Keep your baby in an upright position for 20 to 30 minutes after feeding to help digestion and prevent gas buildup.
  • Try gentle tummy massages: Gently massage your baby's tummy in a clockwise motion or move their legs in a bicycling motion to help release trapped gas naturally.
