A commonly asked question is, “How many times can I give my baby colic drops?”. For infants and children younger than 2 years of age: Give five (5) probiotic drops for babies daily, or as recommended by a healthcare professional.
Adults and children older than 2 years of age who cannot chew or wish to take the drops rather than Reuterina® chew tables: Take five (5) drops daily, or as recommended by a healthcare professional.
Shake the tube well before use. To dispense, turn the bottle upside down and the drops will form slowly. The drops can be given directly into the mouth or on a spoon. the drops should not be added to hot food or drink as the heat may damage the live cultures.
Each tube contains a minimum of 125 drops.
Reuterina® drops are indicated from birth, however, it is best to consult your healthcare professional for advice on your baby as they have access to any medical and birth information required to make a decision regarding any form of supplementation
Shake well for 10 seconds before each use to mix the bacteria culture with the oil.
Do not add to hot drink or food as this may damage the live bacteria.

Reuterina® drops can be used by patients suffering from milk protein allergy and / or are sensitive to lactose / gluten
– A probiotic bacteria can be grown on different types of media
– The L. reuteri Protectis ® culture used in Reuterina® drops are grown on a barley based media, therefore, the drops do not contain lactose or milk protein
Our drops should not be stored in the freezer. The oil suspension will solidify and the probiotic bacteria will be exposed to water, when stored in the freezer. This process shortens the shelf-life severely.
Exposure to high temperatures and / or high humidity accelerates the degradation of the probiotic bacteria. If exposure is too long it will result in a shorter shelf-life of the product, but the product is still safe to use.
