What is the best formula to use when a baby has reflux?
Every baby is different so it’s difficult to pinpoint one specific formula that is the best for reflux. If the baby has a milk allergy or sensitivity then soy based or hypoallergenic will likely help the reflux improve. As well, hypoallergenic formulas are pre-digested (either partially or completely) so they tend to move through the stomach faster than standard formulas. Moving food out of the stomach faster can be beneficial for two reasons. If the baby is a picky eater it may help them get hungry again faster. It also means the food isn’t sitting around in the stomach waiting to be refluxed. back to top…
