USES

There is no other reflux formulation on the market that is specifically designed for babies. Reflux happens because muscles at the base of your baby’s food pipe have not fully developed, so milk can come back up easily.

Symptoms of reflux in babies include:

Bringing up milk or being sick during or shortly after feeding

Coughing or hiccupping when feeding

Being unsettled during feeding

Swallowing or gulping after burping or feeding

Crying and not settling

Not gaining weight as they’re not keeping enough food down

Sometimes babies may have signs of reflux, but will not bring up milk or be sick. This is known as silent reflux.
