Similac Sensitive Infant Formula with OptiGRO is a great option when you need an alternative formula when a baby is experiencing fussiness and gas. Most babies experience these symptoms but if the symptoms are frequent, lactose sensitivity may be to blame. The Similac Sensitive formula is a reduced lactose formulation with a unique blend of two carbohydrates to help maximize absorption and be extra sensitive for baby's digestion. It is suitable for infants with intolerance to milk-based formulas but it's not suitable for infants or children with galactosemia.
Similac Sensitive features OptiGRO, a special blend by Abbott Nutrition. Similac Sensitive liquid also features DHA, lutein and vitamin E, all ingredients found in breast milk. DHA has been shown to support brain and eye development, lutein to support eye health and vitamin E to support developing cells. The formula is fortified with iron shown to support baby's growth and brain development. This exclusive blend also has calcium, nucleotides to help support the immune system, prebiotics for digestive health and carotenoids, naturally found in breast milk, that act as antioxidants to fight off disease.
For other dietary needs, Similac Sensitive is gluten-free, Halal and Kosher. Available in three sizes: Similac Sensitive Powder is available in 1- Quart Ready-to-Feed liquid, and 1.41 lbs and 12.6 oz Powder Cans.
