Some suggestions:
Pace the feed( basically means holding baby upright,bottle horizontal.tilt bottle only when baby sucks,tilt down when not sucking)
Burp after every 30 ml of feed
Colic massage for tummy
Anticolic bottles may help,slower flow nipple may help.
Formula purported to be easily digested may help
