Description
Food for special medical purposes for the dietary management of infants with gastroesophageal reflux with or without regurgitation.
From birth.
During the first year of a child's life, cases of confirmed gastroesophageal reflux disease may occur.
The backflow of stomach contents into the throat is referred to as gastroesophageal reflux and can lead to regurgitation. In this case, along with appropriate dietary treatment, it may be helpful to reduce portion sizes and increase meal frequency while keeping the baby as upright as possible.
For the management of gastroesophageal reflux with or without regurgitation, Humana AR formula uses a special corn starch which, during food preparation, increases its density, thus reducing the predisposition to reflux.
Humana AR is a complete formula with starch and high proportions of casein which, once it reaches the stomach, changes its structure, naturally increasing the viscosity of the milk.

Prepare the milk before each meal and administer immediately.
Do not reuse leftover milk.
Improper preparation and use can harm the infant's health.

3) Close the bottle and shake to dissolve the powder.
4) Cool under running water to approximately 37°C and check the temperature.
