Unlike other formulas, SMA Staydown should be made up with chilled water that has been previously boiled. (See Preparing the Feed)
SMA Staydown is also suitable for older infants and young children in conjunction with solid food.
SMA Staydown is suitable for both Halal and Vegetarian diets.
What is significant reflux?
Most babies bring back some of their feeds. However if your baby is bringing back milk more frequently and in larger volumes it may be due to significant reflux.
Most babies grow out of this condition by 12 to 18 months of age.
If you think your baby is suffering from significant reflux, consult your GP.
When should SMA Staydown be used?
SMA Staydown can be used from birth up until 18 months of age. However, all babies are individual, and the problem may stop around the time of weaning, in which case you can switch back to an infant formula, such as SMA First Infant Milk (Formerly SMA Gold). Or if your baby is over 6 months, you may choose a follow-on milk such as SMA Follow-on Milk (Formerly SMA Progress), which is specially formulated for older babies as part of a mixed weaning diet.
