Preemies

What formula for your preemie w/ reflux?

Made appt. w/ new pedi today who suggested we try similac sensitive rs.  Curious to see what formula worked for others.  Currently he's on zantac 2x a day 1ml each.  Many thanks!

  • Good Start is the most easy on the stomach.  I would try that.  We were on it for a long time before the boys went on feeding tubes and a more elemental formula.

  • we also ended up with Good Starts. We tried alimentum, nutramigen, nutramigen AA, elecare, enfamil AR... *thinking* oh. uh.. Prosobee. A ton. Turned out that Robbie's stomach couldn't hand the corn syrup in all the similac & enfamil products. Good Starts isn't made with it.

     

  • Thanks ladies!!! : )

  • I used the target generic for Gentlease... Good luck!
  • We went straight from Neosure to Good Start. The difference was night and day. My refluxy guy still had pretty terrible reflux, but it was NOTHING compared to the awfulness that Neosure caused.
