Aptamil Anti-Reflux
Aptamil® Anti-Reflux is a thickened formula, designed to help feeds stay down. Suitable from birth, Aptamil® Anti-Reflux is formulated for the dietary management of frequent reflux and regurgitation. If you think your baby has frequent reflux and regurgitation speak to your health visitor or pharmacist for advice.
How it works
Aptamil® Anti-Reflux is formulated with carob bean gum, which thickens the formula, helping the feed stay down.
It is nutritionally complete, suitable as the sole source of nutrition from birth to 6 months and as part of a weaning diet from 6 months to 1 year.
What are reflux and regurgitation?
Reflux occurs when the contents of the stomach move back into the oesophagus after feeding. Regurgitation (or posseting) means the stomach contents come up into your baby’s mouth.
If you think your baby has reflux, speak to your health visitor or pharmacist for advice.
