A Nutritious Alternative to Rice Cereal in Formula

As parents explore options for managing their baby's reflux, adding rice cereal to the formula is likely one suggestion they will encounter. Enfamil A.R. is less caloric and more nutritionally balanced than adding rice cereal to the formula. It provides the benefit of a rice-thickened consistency with a nutrient profile similar to standard infant formula.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

How thick is this formula? Will it work with the same bottle nipple that my baby normally uses?
Many caregivers find that their baby's usual-size bottle nipple works just fine. But because Enfamil A.R. is about 10 times thicker than the standard formula, some users report that it works better with a faster-flow nipple. Bottle nipples differ from brand to brand, so your experience may vary.

What is the clinical evidence for this formula?
Enfamil A.R. is the only spit-up formula that has been proven to reduce regurgitation due to reflux in a published, randomized, controlled trial. In this clinical study, researchers compared the frequency and volume of spit-up after feeding babies A.R. formula to data from the same babies at the start of the study. The formula was shown to reduce the frequency and volume of spit-up by over 50% in one week.
