Cow & Gate Anti-Reflux Formula 800g - From Birth

This information is intended for healthcare professionals to use with parents or carers of who require Cow & Gate Anti-Reflux Formula.


For the dietary management of reflux and regurgitation, Cow & Gate Anti-Reflux formula contains carob bean gum for a thickened consistency on mixing, to help the milk stay down in your little one’s tummy.
Sometimes little one’s bring up their feeds in small amounts after feeding and this is perfectly normal. If this is happening often, or in larger amounts, your baby may be suffering from reflux and regurgitation due to their developing digestive system.


Cow & Gate Anti-Reflux formula is suitable as a sole source of nutrition from birth, and as part of a weaning diet from 6 to 12 months whilst managing your baby’s reflux.


Our 800g pack of Cow & Gate Anti-Reflux formula comes with a scoop and a scoop leveller, for more accuracy when preparing your baby’s feed.

How to prepare your baby's milk
Because powdered milks are not sterile, failure to follow instructions may make your baby ill.
1 Wash hands and sterilise all utensils according to manufacturers' instructions.
2 Boil 1 litre of freshly run water.
Leave kettle to cool for 45 minutes and no longer. Measure the required amount of water (refer to feeding guide) into a sterilised bottle. Be careful of scalding. Do not use artificially softened or repeatedly boiled water.
3 Using the scoop provided, level off the powder with the built-in leveller. Do not press/heap the powder.
4 Add the correct measure of powder to the water (1 scoop to 30ml / 1fl.oz of water). Adding too many or too few scoops can be harmful. Place the sterilised teat and cap on the bottle and roll upright between the palms of your hands - roll it strongly for 5 seconds. The time between adding the scoops and rolling the bottle should be as short as possible.
5 Shake bottle for 20 seconds and then leave to stand for 7 minutes to allow it to thicken. Check temperature of feed. Feed immediately.
