Maybe: Colic is more a behavioral issue than disease. It overlaps with normal infant fussiness, tends to peak at 6-8 wks & fade after they learn to roll over. Treatments are more something they give you to feel like you are doing something than a fix. If you think it helps get more.

Colic: I am not a pediatrician. I did look this product uyp and it appears to be a probiotic called Lactobacillus reuteri Protectis that is reported to help treat colic, regurgitation, constipation, antibiotic-associated diarrhea and acute gastroenteritis. Probiotics don't work on everyone. If it is actually making her feel worse (which is what I think you said) why continue the product?
