Similac Alimentum Formula Review Summary

Being an hypoallergenic baby formula means the Similac Alimentum Infant Formula “provides infant comfort fast” for babies with sensitivities to milk. Although the Alimentum baby formula is “much more expensive than regular formulas,” Viewpoints parents agree that it is worth every penny for the results they received. In the words of one mom “when nothing else worked for my baby, [Silimac Alimentum] did.” Is Alimentum right for your baby? Talk with your pediatrician first, but reviewers who had tried numerous baby formulas for their colicky baby recommend trying Similac Alimentum. Compare Similac Alimentum to Enfamil Nutramigen, another hypoallergenic baby formula.

My son was diagnosed with GERD and they put him on this formula. I must say that it done somewhat ok for about a month or so and now we are right back to the spitting up routine again. For the cost of $30.00 a small can I think he done just as well on the regular similac formula. —… read full review »

For a baby with facial rash milk allergies--worth every penny,

After exclusively breast-feeding, I started my 4 month old on solid foods to help slow down my extreme weight loss and discovered he was allergic to formula--he instantly developed a facial rash! I tried the "gentlease" partially digested protein formulas, lactose-free, and even soy formula, and he still had facial rashes after even two bites of cereal made with formula. If he smeared the cereal on his arms, the rash appeared there too! After switching to Alimentum he hasn't experienced any more rashes and I feel like he is getting the nutrients he needs from solid foods and needs to… read full review »

When our baby was born, he would scream and cry after each breast feeding. Due to a medication I had to start, I discontinued breastfeeding hoping he would react better to formula. We tried everything from gentle formulas to regular formulas and he would still scream after each feeding. then we tried Alimentum and we now have a happy camper. It is very… read full review »

My poor daughter has a horrible milk, soy and protein allergy. She was fussy, colicky and vomiting excessively. When her dr finally switched to Similiac Alimentum I got a whole new baby. She was happy and putting on weight. She is now a healthy 4 month old who is ahead in her development. I am able to sleep and relax sometimes… read full review »

This worked miracles for my son. He had acid reflux as an infant and no other formula worked for him. He stopped throwing up and crying after every bottle. It is much more expensive than regular formula and they don't offer many coupons. It is well worth the money if your child has a special need for it… read full review »

This was the fouth formula we tried with my son. He had reflux issues. This formula mixed with a little cereal was the only thing we could keep down for the first 7 months. The formula has a bad smell, but it is worth it because it worked. The other down side is the price. It is quite expensive.… read full review »
