Hi,
The recommended daily dosage of Neopeptine is maximum 12 drops. To increase dose has not been approved yet,also it may have many side effects. I suggest you breastfeed more often your baby and try gentle massage after breastfeeding.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
