Key Benefits
Complete Dietary Management for Infants: Unlike standard elimination diets that may risk nutritional gaps, Aptamil Pepti 0-12 months provides 100% of the essential vitamins, minerals, and calories required for infants in their first year of life.
Aptamil Pepti Infant Formula Powder is specifically designed for the dietary management of Cow's Milk Protein Allergy (CMPA) in infants. It uses extensively hydrolysed (broken down) proteins to prevent allergic reactions, offering relief from symptoms like colic, skin rashes, and digestive distress, while providing complete nutrition.
No, it is not dairy-free. It is made from cow's milk, but the proteins are "extensively hydrolysed", meaning they are broken down into such small pieces that the baby's immune system usually does not recognise them as allergens. It is highly effective for CMPA but still contains milk derivatives.
Most parents notice a significant reduction in CMPA symptoms, including colic and digestive discomfort, within 3 to 14 days of exclusively switching to an extensively hydrolysed formula. However, always consult your paediatrician to monitor your baby's progress.
Yes, Aptamil Pepti contains purified lactose. Nutricia includes lactose because it aids in calcium absorption, supports healthy gut flora, and improves the taste of the formula compared to completely lactose-free, hydrolysed formulas.
Aptamil Pepti 1 is formulated primarily for infants aged 0 to 12 months. For toddlers over 1 year, paediatricians usually recommend transitioning to a stage 2 or stage 3 hypoallergenic formula or advising on an appropriate dairy-free diet. Always consult your doctor before changing formulas.
Regular baby milk powder contains whole, intact cow's milk proteins. In babies with CMPA, these intact proteins trigger an immune response. Aptamil Pepti contains pre-digested proteins that bypass this immune response, making it safe for allergic infants.
It is completely normal for babies consuming an extensively hydrolysed formula to have softer, greener stools. The distinct smell and colour of the stool are a harmless result of the broken-down proteins passing through the digestive system.
It is highly recommended to prepare each feed fresh. Prepared infant formula provides an ideal environment for bacteria to grow. If you must prepare in advance, store the prepared bottle in the back of the refrigerator (below 5°C) and use it within 24 hours.
Hydrolysed formulas naturally have a slightly more bitter taste and distinct smell compared to standard formulas. If transitioning, you may ask your paediatrician if you can gradually mix it with their current feed over a few days to help them get accustomed to the new taste.
Yes. The advanced scientific process required to extensively hydrolyse milk proteins while retaining complete nutritional value makes FSMP (Foods for Special Medical Purposes) more expensive to produce than standard formulas. It is a necessary medical intervention for CMPA.
