Is colicaid safe to give along with omnacortil forte? my child is on omnacortil forte syrup but he is having colic issue, can i give colicaid to him?

Colic: Colic occurs in infants up to about 4 months of age. The ingredients in Colicaid will not hurt your baby but have not been shown to help much either. If your baby is taking a steroid such as Omnacortil Forte (prednisolone), that illness takes precedence and I would avoid giving baby other treatments unless prescribed. Unsure if safe.
