What is Novalac AR+ 2 Age Regurgitation Baby Formula used for?
Novalac AR+ 0–36 months is a powdered dietary food intended for special medical purposes. It meets all nutritional needs and can be used as the sole source of nutrition up to 6 months of age and as part of a varied diet starting at 6 months of age for infants exhibiting the indicated symptoms.
Novalac AR+ should be used under medical supervision; do not change this infant formula without consulting a healthcare professional.
Although regurgitation is usually not a problem for infants, in some cases it can be more severe, more frequent, and more painful for the baby. To provide relief for these babies, there are infant formulas with a double-thickened composition.
Novalac AR+ 6–36 months naturally thickens the liquid to increase its density, thereby reducing the likelihood of it coming back up.
Novalac offers a unique and innovative formula. The Novalac AR+ powdered milk formula contains a complex of two natural thickeners (starch and carob), which helps reduce persistent regurgitation in young children.
Novalac AR+ 6–36 months is a dietary food intended for special medical purposes; it must be excluded from the diet of healthy children and should only be used under medical supervision.
- Reduces severe regurgitation in infants(1)
