Alimentum

Anyone use Similac Alimentum for a child with bad gas pains? One of my twins has the most excruciating colic cries from gas. Tried Zantac with no help at all, doc thought it might be reflux. How long did it take to see results on the Alimentum? Just started last night, no change so far.

Re: Alimentum

  • We tried it for our boys for a month....I honestly don't think it helped...with them the only thing that helped was time...once they hit about 3.5 months things started to get better!
  • I know some people's insurance covers Alimentum. Mine will and its Humana. Good luck, I have some frends on it that love it.
