A member asked:
My two months old boy is allergic to cows milk. now switched to soya but he refuse to drink. which one is best between soya and hypoallergenic formula milk ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hypoallergenic : If a true milk allergy,breast milk or hypoallergenic formula is best.There is often cross reactivity between soy and cow’s milk allergies.For taste purposes,try mixing the formula that he likes with the new hypoallergenic formula at a proportion of 3/4 of old and 1/4 of new and increase proportion of new gradually.He’ll be more likely to adjust that way.If he really won’t drink,call his doctor.
