A member asked:

4 month old baby has had eczema since she began breastmilk. ped now has her on alimentum or nutrimugen. hates it. can we just switch to simil advance?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Maybe, maybe not: One of the prime triggers to eczema are food allergies, which is why the doc would try nutramagen.This would be a way to avoid cow milk solids that might be detectable in your milk.Cow milk is one of the most common food allergies of childhood.Similac advance has cow milk as its basic protein source. I wouldn't.Best talk with your doc.
