Dosage for colicy 3 month old

I was told to try nux vomica on my 3 month old to help his severe colic. I have a 30c vial. How much should I give to him?

What is one dose for an infant?
*If the medicine is in liquid dilution form
Please add some 2-3 drops of the liquid dilution to some 100 ml water. Please give 1 tsp water as one dose.

*If the medicine is in pill form
2 pills. Don't touch pills with hand. Use cap of bottle to take pills.

You may give 3 doses per day at a gap of 4 hours for 2 days and see how that affects in the next 7 days.

Thanks so much for responding. I have the pill form. Is it possible to give pills to a 3 month old or should i dilute them in water?

Actually the pills are not ingested they are absorbed before reaching intestines. You may dissolve pills in water and then give, it is ok.
