Food Allergies Treatment

Question by stressed: My son is 11 mos old on elecare formula? what is the next formula to try with less milk or soy?
IF he even has an allergy it’s an intestinal one as he tested negative to milk and soy by patch and blood work. The only way we will know is by oral challenge. We want to take him to something with less milk or less proteins so it’t not a hard adjustement on his system.

If he is severely allergic try a fully hydrolyzed formula such as Nutragimen AA. Some babies are able to stomach some milk proteins (my daughter is also allergic) and you can try him on goats milk..but if you see a reaction starting stop usage straight away and give piriton. I personally wouls stick to the fully hydrolyzed formula until you know for sure what it is hesallergic too exactly.

My baby had cow’s milk allergy when we introduced it when she was about 6 months. She’s now 19 months old and I am considering trying to give her cow’s milk formula again. She does not seem to like soy milk and lactose free milk.
