Anxious parents of a 3-month-old baby sought homeopathy for excessive irritability and crankiness in their infant. Her mother said that his stomach would become hard and she would cry incessantly every evening.

His mother added that the baby occasionally had loud burps post feeds in the evening, which relieved her and she would stop crying post that. Occasionally she would vomit out curdled milk after feeds in the evening.

His stools were of normal. She used to pass stools 3-4 times in a day.

The mother informed us that the infant had a clean tongue with much salivation. In the evening her abdomen would become hard. The infant was diagnosed to have a condition called as '1/2 Infantile Colic'

Based upon the signs and symptoms, the Homoeopathic remedy Ipecac was prescribed.

After two weeks of regular medication, the baby showed no symptoms at all and her crying and irritability spells stopped completely.
