We never got a diagnosis of reflux due to being fobbed off my GP's but decided to try the milk and it was a game changer, all has been perfect since, he's now 9 weeks. Whilst this product is made under strict hygienic conditions, it is not sterile. Failure to follow instructions on preparation and storage may make your baby ill.

SMA® Anti-Reflux is a nutritionally complete formula for the dietary management of formula-fed babies with significant reflux (regurgitation/spitting up). It can be used as the sole source of nutrition from birth in place of your usual formula feed, and can be mixed with foods once weaning has begun. Reflux often occurs because a baby's digestive system is immature. SMA ® Anti-reflux formula offers a nutritional option in the management of reflux before moving on to medical intervention as recommended by the NICE guidelines 2 see below: La Leche League International.

You may not see a change straightaway so we always allow 2 weeks to see the full effect of the milk. Some babies on these milks will have their symptoms of reflux eased, reflux can be managed on either medication or anti reflux milk. Some babies' symptoms will go completely whilst others will just ease slightly. But as long as your LO is gaining weight and well in themselves then it may be something that we have to wait until their a little bigger to completely resolve.NICE guidance for the management of GOR, states that first line treatment should include parental support and reassurance 2.
