Relox Children and Infant Suspension contains Simethicone (40mg/5ml), a specialized anti-foaming agent designed for pediatric digestive comfort. It works by changing the surface tension of gas bubbles in the stomach and intestines. This action causes small, trapped bubbles to combine into larger ones that are much easier for a baby to pass as a "burp" or through flatulence. Unlike many other medicines, Simethicone is not absorbed into the bloodstream; it stays entirely within the digestive tract, making it an exceptionally safe and gentle choice for even the youngest infants.
In Nigeria, Relox is a premier clinical choice for managing infant colic and post-feeding discomfort. It is available through registered pharmacies like Sanlive Pharmacy to ensure parents receive authentic, high-stability suspensions manufactured under strict pediatric safety standards and stored in a cool, dry environment to maintain the chemical integrity of the 40mg simethicone dose.
Important: This is a specialized, over-the-counter pediatric medication. The "Shake" Rule: You must shake the bottle vigorously before every use to ensure the medicine is evenly mixed. The "Burping" Tip: For the best results, administer the dose before or during a feeding and follow up with a gentle burping session. Do not use if your child has a known hypersensitivity to simethicone or any of the flavoring agents in the suspension.
Relox Children and Infant Suspension is primarily used to:
Relieve the symptoms of Infant Colic (excessive crying due to trapped gas)
Reduce painful bloating and "tight" tummies in babies and toddlers
Assist in the easy expulsion of trapped air after breastfeeding or bottle-feeding
Calm "fussy" babies who swallow too much air while crying or feeding
Provide rapid relief for flatulence (gas) and stomach gurgling
Act as a gentle, non-absorbed digestive aid that does not affect the baby’s natural gut flora
This product is suitable for:
Infants from birth (0 months+) experiencing signs of colic or wind
Toddlers and older children with stomach bloating or gas pain
Babies who are particularly "gassy" after starting solid foods
Not recommended for: Treating severe abdominal pain that is accompanied by a high fever or repeated vomiting (this may indicate an infection). It is strictly contraindicated for children with a suspected bowel obstruction. Consult our pharmacist if your child is taking thyroid medication (like Levothyroxine), as Simethicone can slightly interfere with its absorption if given at the exact same time.
Use the provided measuring syringe or dropper to ensure an accurate dose based on the child's age/weight
Standard Infant Dose: Usually 2.5ml to 5ml (half to one teaspoon) given after meals and at bedtime
The "Feeding" Rule: For babies with colic, the dose is most effective when given right before or during a feeding
The "Drop" Tip: You can mix the suspension with a small amount of cool water or infant formula if the baby prefers it that way
Frequency: Can be given up to 4 to 6 times daily as needed, but do not exceed the maximum dose stated on the label
If a dose is missed, simply give it at the next feeding time; there is no need to "double up"
Relox is exceptionally safe because it is not absorbed into the body, but some parents may notice:
More frequent burping or passing of gas (this is a sign the medicine is working)
A slight change in the consistency or color of the baby's stool
Rare: A mild skin rash or itching (allergic reaction to the flavoring/preservatives)
Rare: Loose stools if given in very large amounts
Seek medical advice if your baby develops a high fever, a very hard and swollen abdomen that does not improve with burping, or if the crying becomes unusual or high-pitched.

How quickly will my baby feel better?
Relox starts working almost immediately upon reaching the stomach. You will often hear your baby burp or pass gas within 15 to 30 minutes after the dose is given.
Can I use this for every feeding?
Yes. Since it is not absorbed into the blood and doesn't cause "drowsiness," it is safe to use for every feeding during a particularly gassy day, as long as you stay within the daily limit.
Is it safe to use with Gripe Water?
In many cases, yes. However, since many "Gripe Waters" also contain gas-relieving ingredients, check with our pharmacist first to ensure you aren't over-medicating your little one.
