Inspired by over 120 years of Nutricia's expertise in early life
science, and 40 years of pioneering research, our team has
developed Aptamil Anti-Reflux; nutritionally complete* and
combining our blend of ingredients with our unique process to
develop a formulation specifically designed for babies with
frequent reflux and regurgitation. Reflux and regurgitation:
Babies often spit up small amounts of milk after feeding
(commonly referred to as posseting) and this is perfectly normal.
However, some babies may suffer from more frequent reflux or
regurgitation which can be caused by the developing digestive
system. *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 If
you are concerned that your baby has frequent reflux or
regurgitation you should speak to your healthcare professional.
Aptamil Anti-Reflux should not be used in combination with
antacids or other thickeners and is not suitable for premature
infants. Ask for advice from your healthcare professional before
use. Moving to the next stage: If you think your little one is
ready to move on from Aptamil Anti-Reflux, speak to a healthcare
professional about the most suitable milk for your baby.
Important notice Breastfeeding is best for babies. Aptamil
Anti-Reflux is a food for special medical purposes for the
dietary management of frequent reflux and regurgitation. It
should only be used under medical supervision, after full
consideration of the feeding options available including
breastfeeding. Suitable for use as the sole source of nutrition
for infants from birth and as part of a balanced diet from 6-12
months. This product should not be used in combination with
antacids or other thickeners and is not suitable for premature
infants. For enteral use only. When bottle feeding do not allow
prolonged or frequent contact of milk feeds with your baby's
teeth as this increases the risk of tooth decay. Ask your
healthcare professional or dentist for advice. Make sure your
baby's teeth are cleaned after the last feed at night.

This information is given as a guide only. Consult your
healthcare professional if you require more advice.
Important: Always use the scoop provided, please note the colour
of the scoop in this pack may change from time to time.
How to use this pack
To open, remove tamper evidence strip on the rim of pack.
There is a handy leveller built into the pack. Store your scoop
in the lid so that it is kept safe and secure.
Click the lid securely shut to keep your powder fresh.
Preparing your baby's feed
Because powdered milks are not sterile, failure to follow
instructions may make your baby ill.
1 Wash hands and sterilise all utensils according to
manufacturers' instructions.
2 Boil 1 litre of freshly run water. Leave kettle to cool for 45
minutes and no longer. Measure the required amount of water
(refer to feeding guide) into a sterilised bottle. Be careful of
scalding. Do not use artificially softened or repeatedly boiled
water.
3 Using the scoop provided level off the powder with the
built-in leveller. Do not press/heap the powder.
4 Add the correct measure of powder to the water. Adding too
many or too few scoops can be harmful. Place the sterilised teat
and cap on the bottle. Hold the bottle horizontally and shake
from left to right for 10 seconds, then hold it vertically and
shake from top to bottom for 10 seconds. The time between adding
the scoops and shaking the bottle should be as short as possible.
5 Leave the bottle to stand for 5 minutes to allow it to
thicken. Turn the bottle upside down just before feeding. Check
temperature of feed. Feed immediately.
You may notice that your baby's stools change consistency when
using this formula. This is completely normal.
Important feeding advice
Make up each feed as required. For hygiene reasons, do not store
made up feeds, discard unfinished feeds as soon as possible, and
always within 2 hours. Do not heat feeds in a microwave, hot
spots may occur and cause scalding. Never add extra scoops or
anything else to your baby's feed. Never leave your baby alone
during feeding.
