Aptamil Pepti 2 from 6 Months

About Aptamil Pepti 2 from 6 Months

Aptamil Pepti 2 is a Food for Special Medical Purposes designed for the dietary management of cow’s milk allergy (CMA). This formula is extensively hydrolysed, meaning the whey proteins have been broken down into significantly smaller pieces so the immune system is less likely to recognise them as allergens.

Specially formulated for infants from 6 months of age, Aptamil Pepti 2 supports the weaning journey by providing essential nutrients that may be lacking in a dairy-free diet. It contains 1.4ug of Vitamin D and 63mg of Calcium per 100ml, ensuring your growing baby receives the support needed for healthy bone and teeth development.

What Is Aptamil Pepti 2 Used For?

Aptamil Pepti 2 is used to provide balanced nutrition for babies with a confirmed cow’s milk allergy. It is specifically tailored for the second stage of infancy (6-12 months), providing 1mg of Iron per 100ml to support normal cognitive development as your baby begins to explore solid foods.

Aptamil Pepti 2 is suitable for infants aged 6 months and older.
