Directions for Use

Strict hygiene and preparation methods are crucial for newborn health. Follow these steps carefully:

  1. Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water. Clean and sterilise the feeding bottle, nipple, and cap by boiling them in water for at least 5 minutes.
  2. Boil fresh drinking water for 5 minutes and allow it to cool to a lukewarm temperature (approximately 37°C - 40°C).
  3. Pour the exact amount of lukewarm water into the sterilised feeding bottle as directed by your paediatrician.
  4. Use only the enclosed scoop. Add one level scoop of Similac Plus Stage 1 powder for every 30 ml of water. Level the powder using the flat edge of a clean knife.
  5. Cap the bottle and shake well until the powder is completely dissolved. Test the temperature on your wrist before feeding.

Dosage Guidelines:

Use exactly as prescribed by your paediatrician. A standard chart (check packaging) usually suggests feeding a newborn 60-90ml per feed, increasing as the baby grows.

Pro Tip: Discard any unused formula left in the bottle within 1 hour of starting the feed to prevent bacterial growth.

Key Benefits

  • Supports Advanced Brain Development: Formulated with a specialised blend of DHA and ARA, this formula provides essential omega fatty acids that mimic those found in breast milk. These neuro-nutrients are clinically proven to support the rapid cognitive and neurological development that occurs in the first six months of life.
  • Enhances Immune System Support: Newborns have developing immune systems that require targeted nutritional support. This formula includes specific prebiotics, antioxidants, and nucleotides that help build cellular defences and promote a healthy gut microbiome, acting as a crucial shield against common early-life infections.
  • Promotes Healthy Eye Development: Fortified with Lutein and Natural Vitamin E, this pediatric formula actively supports retinal health. Lutein filters blue light and protects the developing eyes, while Vitamin E prevents the oxidation of DHA, ensuring maximum nutrient absorption.
  • Gentle on Newborn Digestion: Designed specifically as newborn baby food, the protein and carbohydrate blend is optimised for an infant's delicate gastrointestinal tract. It ensures easy digestion and minimises the risk of gas, colic, and constipation.
  • Supports Physical Growth and Bone Health: Provides a meticulously balanced ratio of Calcium, Phosphorus, and Vitamin D. This ensures optimal bone mineralisation and physical weight gain, keeping your baby on track with pediatric growth charts.

FAQs

Similac Plus Stage 1 is a scientifically developed pediatric formula used as a breast milk substitute for infants from 0 to 6 months of age. It is used when breastfeeding is not possible or insufficient, providing essential nutrients for brain development, immunity, and healthy physical growth.

Always use the scoop provided inside the tin. The standard mixing ratio is 1 level, unpacked scoop of powder for every 30 ml of lukewarm, previously boiled water. Do not add extra powder or water unless directed by a paediatrician.

The Similac Plus 400g price varies slightly based on promotions, but it is competitively priced to offer premium newborn infant nutrition. Please check the current pricing at the top of this Apollo product page for the most accurate and up-to-date cost.

Yes. It is formulated with a specialised carbohydrate and protein blend that is gentle on a newborn baby's developing stomach. It is designed to be easily digestible, helping to reduce the likelihood of gas, constipation, or colic.

While both provide complete infant nutrition, Similac Plus generally features an enhanced IQ+ nutritional blend, including specific prebiotics and optimised levels of DHA, ARA, and Lutein to offer superior immune system support and cognitive development.

It is safest to prepare formula fresh for each feed. If you must prepare it in advance, store the mixed formula immediately in the refrigerator (2°C - 4°C) and use it within 24 hours. Never freeze mixed formula.

Yes, it is heavily fortified with DHA (Docosahexaenoic Acid) and ARA (Arachidonic Acid). These are critical omega fatty acids naturally found in breast milk that are clinically proven to support infant brain and eye development.

No. You must only mix infant formula with sterilised, lukewarm drinking water. Mixing pediatric formula with cow's milk can dangerously overload a newborn's kidneys with excess proteins and minerals.

Depending on the baby’s age and appetite, a 400gm tin typically lasts between 4 to 7 days if the baby is exclusively formula-fed. Always ensure you use the open tin within 3 weeks.

Most babies transition smoothly. However, minor changes in stool consistency or frequency are normal when switching formulas. If your baby experiences persistent distress, vomiting, or diarrhoea, consult your paediatrician.
