Breastfeeding is best for babies and provides many benefits. It is important that, in preparation for and during breastfeeding, you eat a healthy, balanced diet. Combined breast and bottle feeding in the first weeks of life may reduce the supply of your own breast milk, and reversing the decision not to breastfeed is difficult. The social and financial implications of using an infant milk should be considered. Improper use of an infant milk or inappropriate foods or feeding methods may present a health hazard. If you use an infant milk, you should follow manufacturer’s instructions for use carefully – failure to follow the instructions may make your baby ill.
Aptamil Pepti 2 is for the dietary management of cows’ milk allergy (CMA). Suitable from 6 months to complement a cows’ milk-free weaning diet.
How does Aptamil Pepti 2 work?
The protein has been broken down (extensively hydrolysed) to make it less likely to cause an allergic reaction.

CMA is the most common food allergy in infants. Although most children eventually grow out of their milk allergy, its diagnosis and management can be a worrying time for parents. The good news is, with prompt diagnosis by a healthcare professional, treatment and expert dietary advice, CMA can be effectively managed and its impact reduced to a minimum. Read more about recognising the signs of milk allergy and intolerance in babies.
