What Causes Excessive Intestinal Gas?

Hello Doctor,

I have a 23 month old daughter. She passes gas when she takes certain foods like beans, egg, etc. She also has stomach upsets and foul smelling stools when she has eggs (fully cooked eggs). We give her colic aid if she has difficulty in sleeping due to gas,

I was wondering if we can give her enterogerma to improve her intestinal function. Can you guide me on the dosage and the duration for which it can be given.

Thanks,

M Joseph
