Frequently Asked Questions**
What is the purpose of Tummy Calm and is it safe for my child?
Tummy Calm homeopathic medicine provides relief for discomfort from gas,
bloating and upset stomach. Importantly, Tummy Calm is made according
to Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) for over-the-counter homeopathic
medicines.
What makes Tummy Calm different from simethicone gas drops?
The active ingredients in Tummy Calm provide multi-symptom relief.
According to the principles of homeopathy, each dose gently stimulates the
body’s ability to heal itself, as opposed to merely suppressing symptoms with
synthetic chemicals.
How long will it take to work?
Most children will experience relief with their first dose of Tummy Calm.
However, some may take longer before showing noticeable improvement.
We recommend giving Tummy Calm up to one week to fully work its wonders.
We encourage you to email us at customercare@tummycalm.com or call us at
(877) 321-CALM for helpful customized suggestions that can make a
difference.
What are the directions for use?
At the first signs of digestive discomfort, shake glass bottle to obtain a
uniform dark mixture. Fill enclosed oral dispenser and dispense liquid slowly,
drop-by-drop, into mouth, between cheek and gums. The dosage can also be
mixed with 1 or 2 ounces of water, infant formula or other suitable liquids. Try
not to give Tummy Calm immediately after feeding if baby’s stomach is full, as
spit up may occur from the added pressure.
Additional tip for toddlers & up: Tummy Calm may also be mixed with water,
juice, cereal or other age-appropriate food/drink. Most children enjoy the
sweet non-herbal taste, which blends especially well with juice. Dark juices
and opaque sippy cups work well if Tummy Calm’s dark color is an issue.
If needed, repeat every 60 minutes for up to 3 doses, or as directed by a
physician. Do not exceed the equivalent of 4 full doses for the appropriate
weight category per day. Carefully recap bottle, clean oral dispenser and let
air-dry after each use.
What if my child spits up Tummy Calm?
With infants, some spitting up is normal. One factor is temperature. Some
babies’ stomachs are sensitive to cooler liquids, so Tummy Calm at room
temperature could be unsettling. Tummy Calm may be added to a small
amount (1 or 2 ounces) of warmed formula or pumped breast milk to raise
temperature and change the taste and texture back to something familiar.
Every baby is different, so a little trial and error is sometimes needed. For
toddlers and up, Tummy Calm naturally settles the stomach, so regurgitation
is less likely.
Can my child take other medications while using Tummy Calm?
As with all medications, it is important to ensure that your doctor is aware of
the use of this product. Always check with your doctor if your child is taking
other medications or has been treated for health concerns.
If other medications are being used, allow a two-hour window between the
other medication and Tummy Calm so that the effects of the other medication
are not lessened.
Does Tummy Calm have any side effects?
There are no known contraindications to any of the active ingredients in
Tummy Calm. However, it is always advised that you check with your doctor
before introducing any product.
You may notice a temporary, harmless, darkening of the stool. This occurs
because Tummy Calm uses a form of carbon called Carbo Vegetabilis
(vegetable charcoal). This pure, naturally-produced, non-carcinogenic
vegetable charcoal makes Tummy Calm black in color. Vegetable charcoal
does not enter the bloodstream, and passes out of the body naturally and
easily, along with the gas and toxins it has collected on its journey through the
digestive tract.
What is the best way to get out stains?
Tummy Calm’s rich dark color is as Mother Nature intended, without any
“pretty” coloring to alter its purity and efficacy. While the microfine particles of
vegetable charcoal do not contain any dye, they can get lodged in fabrics and
may require gentle manipulation to loosen. This is why we have included a
stain warning on bottle and box.
We find that stains lift out easily with most spray stain removers. It is best to
treat stains promptly. For stubborn stains, try pre-spotting with
dishwashing liquid before washing. Many parents keep bibs and rags handy
so stain removal doesn’t become an issue.
Can Tummy Calm be used for anything other than gas?
Yes. Tummy Calm is helpful in easing pain associated with the stomach upset
that often accompanies teething. Toddlers and older children benefit from
stomach ache relief. Tummy Calm also provides relief for hiccups.
How long should each bottle last?
Each bottle contains (47) ¼ teaspoon (1.25 ml) doses for infants under 20 lbs.
or (24) ½ teaspoon (2.5 ml) doses for children over 20 lbs. Some children
require more doses than others, depending on the frequency of their
symptoms. Discard glass bottle within three months after opening.
How do I store Tummy Calm?
This product should be stored at room temperature, out of direct sunlight.
Because there is no need for refrigeration, Tummy Calm is also ideal for
traveling away from home.
Why does my child sleep soundly after taking Tummy Calm?
Peaceful sleep often follows naturally after relief. There are no narcotic,
sedative or habit-forming ingredients in Tummy Calm.

Homeopathy and Dilutions
The homeopathic ingredients in Tummy Calm are diluted either to 1X or 3X
potency. A 1X dilution is obtained by mixing 1 part of the medicinal ingredient
with 9 parts of a neutral diluting agent then vigorously shaking the solution
(succussion). The 3X is obtained by repeating this dilution and succussion
process 3 times. Eight of the nine active ingredients in Tummy Calm operate
according to homeopathic principles at a 3X potency, 1 part per 1,000, or 0.1%.
This level of dilution is found in some non-homeopathic pharmaceuticals in
use today. Drugs such as, Ergocalciferol, are much more diluted than 1 part per
1000.
Unlike most drugs, homeopathic products are not subject to pre-market
approval by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and are not reviewed by
the FDA. The FDA has not evaluated this product.
Activated Charcoal
Tummy Calm derives its rich black color from Carbo Vegetabilis 1X (also known
as activated charcoal or medicinal carbon). A 1X dilution is a dilution of one
part per 10. The activated charcoal in Tummy Calm is prepared according to
HPUS methods. Charcoal has been used safely in medicinal applications for
thousands of years.
The activated charcoal in Tummy Calm relieves the bloating and abdominal
discomfort attributable to gaseousness. Charcoal has been shown to relieve
symptoms of gas and upset stomach in several studies and medical texts
including:
i. “Activated charcoal also significantly reduced the number of
volunteers having abdominal symptoms and the symptom score. Our
data clearly indicates that activated charcoal is an effective anti-gas
medication. Simethicone, also commonly prescribed for
gaseousness, was not found to be effective.” - Activated Charcoal,
Simethicone, and Intestinal Gas: A Double-Blind Study by Naresh K. Jain,
M.D., Vijay P. Patel, M.D., and C. S. Pitchumoni, M.D.
ii. “These experiments showed that orally administered activated
charcoal was effective in preventing the large increase in the number
of flatus events and increased breath hydrogen concentrations that
normally occur following a gas-producing meal.” - Effects of Orally
Administered Activated Charcoal on Intestinal Gas by R.J. Hall, E.
Thompson, and A. Strother.
iii. “Symptoms of bloating and abdominal cramps attributable to
gaseousness were also significantly reduced in both groups by
activated charcoal.” - Efficacy of Activated Charcoal in Reducing
Intestinal Gas: a Double-Blind Clinical Trial by Jain NK, Patel VP,
Pitchumoni CS.
iv. “The use of activated charcoal for adsorbing intestinal gas has
been effective in healthy subjects” - Gastrointestinal Gas. Fardy J,
Sullivan S.
v. “Activated charcoal or prokinetic agents also can be effective
options in some patients for intestinal gas.“ - Intestinal Gas by Fink RN,
Lembo AJ.
vi. “The improvement was still evident 2 months after the end of
treatment.” - Efficacy of an activated charcoal / simethicone
combination in dyspeptic syndrome: results of a randomized
prospective study in general practice. Lecuyer M, Cousin T, Monnot MN,
Coffin B.
Each dose of Tummy Calm contains amounts of activated charcoal
corresponding to the amounts used in these efficacy studies, adjusting for the
size of the child.
i. “a child’s drug dose may be weight (in kg) times 2% of an adult
dose” - Calculation of drug dosage and body surface area of children.
