No,STOP the medicine.
Give just breastfeeds at regular gaps of atleast 2-1/2 hours,burp the baby after every feed for 10 mins.
Babies have colic,specially in evening and night time,all you have to do at that time is burping for 10 mins,do NOT feed the baby before time,and especially when he has colic.
