If your little one is unsettled with wind or minor tummy discomfort, this 150 ml bottle offers a familiar option that has been part of the gripe water category for a very long time — Woodward's is a heritage brand dating back to 1851.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe formulation combines two active ingredients: sodium bicarbonate, which helps neutralise excess stomach acid, and terpeneless dill seed oil, which is traditionally used to help ease trapped wind and digestive discomfort. It comes as a ready-to-give liquid, so there's nothing to mix, and it's intended for temporary relief of minor digestive discomfort rather than as a treatment for the many other causes of crying and tummy trouble in babies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Ingredients\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSodium bicarbonate\u003c\/strong\u003e (50 mg per 5 ml)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat it does:\u003c\/strong\u003e Helps neutralise excess stomach acid.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy it works:\u003c\/strong\u003e It's included to address the acidity and indigestion side of minor digestive discomfort.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTerpeneless dill seed oil\u003c\/strong\u003e (2.15 mg per 5 ml)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat it does:\u003c\/strong\u003e Traditionally used to help relieve trapped wind and digestive discomfort.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhy it works:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dill seed oil is a long-standing ingredient in gripe-type preparations for settling wind.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach 5 ml also contains Nipasept sodium (0.1% m\/v) as a preservative, sucrose (1 g) and alcohol (4.4% v\/v).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShake the bottle well before use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor babies up to 12 months, give 5 ml, no more than three to four times in a 24-hour period.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse only with an accurate medicine measure, and do not exceed the recommended dose.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003cp\u003eSome product information suggests giving gripe water roughly 10 minutes after a feed.
