What is Modilac Expert Rice AR for Infants (Stage 2) used for?
As your baby grows but continues to have a cow’s milk protein allergy, it’s essential to find an infant formula that meets their nutritional needs… and is gentle on their digestive system. Modilac Rice AR 2 is a Food for Special Medical Purposes designed for infants aged 6 to 12 months whoare allergic to cow’s milk protein (CMP ) and prone to frequent regurgitation. This follow-on formula is based on a partially hydrolyzed rice protein, a plant-based alternative to traditional animal milk-based formulas. It is also lactose-free and contains no milk proteins, ensuring gentle digestion.
This follow-on infant formula is enriched with a dual thickening agent — cornstarch and carob seed flour—which ensures a thicker texture. This combination helps reduce spitting up, a common problem among babies with allergies. The result: less reflux, a calmer tummy, and more peaceful feeding times—for both baby and parents. Special attention has been paid to the digestive tolerance of this formula.
Modilac Rice AR 2 is designed to be incorporated into a gradually diversified diet starting at 6 months of age, under medical supervision. It provides a balanced nutritional solution tailored to the needs of babies with food intolerances. Rich in vitamins, essential fatty acids, minerals, and trace elements, it supports immune, cognitive, and bone development. In particular, it contains DHA, a polyunsaturated fatty acid essential for proper brain and vision function.
Modilac Laboratories, drawing on 30 years of expertise in infant nutrition, manufactures its formulas in France and Spain in accordance with strict quality standards. This formula is designed to be hypoallergenic and to support the baby’s development while avoiding allergy triggers. It serves as a genuine alternative to extensively hydrolyzed cow’s milk protein formulas, which are often less palatable.
This formula can also be used as a transition from a cow’s milk-free infant formula. Its mild taste and pleasant texture make it more likely to be accepted by the child. It provides complete nutritional support in cases of confirmedfood allergies, allowing parents to diversify their baby’s diet with confidence, while ensuring the necessary nutrients for healthy development.
In summary, Modilac Rice AR 2 is a formula with no compromises: dairy-free, lactose-free, anti-reflux, rich in essential nutrients, and suitable for babies with allergies starting at 6 months. A trusted solution to support your baby’s growth without digestive issues.
We also offer Modilac Expert Rice & Milk 3rd Stage (12–36 months ) to help prevent new contaminations, at the best price in our online pharmacy.

Expert advice and opinions
In naturopathy, an allergy to cow’s milk protein is often seen as a sign of an immature digestive system. To relieve your baby’s symptoms, a natural approach recommends supporting the intestinal lining with prebiotics and probiotics (in consultation with your pediatrician) to strengthen the intestinal barrier. In addition to a hypoallergenic infant formula such as Modilac Riz AR 2, you can introduce foods rich in omega-3, such as canola oil, as part of your baby’s weaning process (with medical advice).
Also consider gently massaging your baby’s tummy with a suitable oil to aid digestion and reduce colic or abdominal tension.
Finally, every baby is unique. Trust your instincts, observe your baby’s reactions, and don’t hesitate to ask your pharmacist—an expert in infant nutrition and natural products— for advice.
