Colief® Infant Drops was the brainchild of a mother, Mary Buckley, whose daughter, Rebecca, cried all the time.
Desperate to find a solution, she went to the doctor two or three times a week. Eventually, he concluded that the infant’s crying may be due to insufficient lactase enzyme.
He recalled seeing lactase-based products for adults in the US. They allowed adults with lactase deficiency to consume milk and dairy products. They basically eliminated unpleasant side effects (bloating, excess gas and intestinal cramps) and he told mommy about them.
Then Mary thought that lactase might be specially adapted for infants with temporary lactase deficiency. This is how Colief® drops with lactase enzyme came about, launched by Crosscare Limited in Ireland in 1995.
Supported by parents and experts for over 20 years, Colief® Infant Drops help break down lactose in your infant’s regular milk before feeding, making it easy to digest.
Colief® Infant Drops can be used from birth, at every meal of the infant (but no more than 7 meals a day) until around 3-4 months of age. At this age, your baby’s body should be producing enough lactase and the amount of Colief® Infant Drops can be gradually decreased.
Colief® Infant Drops is a 100% natural product that can help continue breastfeeding or, if necessary, prevent a switch to an expensive, hypoallergenic milk formula.
