A member asked:
My pediatrician recommended switching my one-month-old to the sensitive similac will that help with constipation?he seems to be very fussy and gassy
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Similar Sensitive: If your baby's symptoms are due to lactose intolerance, Similac Sensitive may help. If your baby's symptoms are due to milk protein intolerance, this switch will likely have no affect. When changing to a new formula, a minimum two week trial is standard.
