Product Features and Policies
Pregestimil is an infant formula designed for infants who experience fat malabsorption and who may also be sensitive to intact proteins. Fat malabsorption or steatorrhea may be associated with cystic fibrosis, short bowel syndrome, intractable diarrhea, and severe protein-calorie malnutrition.
Features
- Lactose-free
Pregestimil contains 55% of the fat from MCT oil, which is easily absorbed by babies with some GI problems.
- Hypoallergenic protein source (extensively hydrolyzed casein).
- Designed for infants with fat malabsorption problems and who may also be sensitive to intact proteins.
Has DHA and ARA, important nutrients also found in breast milk, that support brain and eye development.
Long-term Usage Guidelines
Pregestimil is designed to provide a sole source of nutrition for infants up to age 6 months, and to provide a major source of nutrition through 12 months of age. Normally, in feeding infants, gradual introduction of solid foods after 4-6 months of age is an important developmental as well as nutritional step.
In cases of chronic malabsorption disorders, Pregestimil is sometimes continued as a milk substitute in the diet of children. This and similar supplemental use of Pregestimil in the diet beyond 12 months of age may make a significant contribution to the maintenance of good nutrition in such patients and is not known to be harmful in any way. When Pregestimil is used as a milk substitute, the total calcium content of the diet should be assessed.
Extended use of Pregestimil (or other infant formulas) as a sole source of diet is most appropriately monitored by physicians and nutritionists on a case-by-case basis.
Ingredients: Corn syrup solids (43%), casein hydrolysate (milk) (17%), medium chain triglycerides (MCT oil) (16%), soy oil (8%), modified corn starch (5%), corn oil (2%), high oleic vegetable oil (safflower or sunflower) (2%) and less than 2%: Mortierella alpina oil, Schizochytrium sp. oil, vitamin A palmitate, vitamin D3, vitamin E acetate, vitamin K1, thiamin hydrochloride, riboflavin, vitamin B6 hydrochloride, vitamin B12, niacinamide, folic acid, calcium pantothenate, biotin, ascorbic acid, choline chloride, inositol, calcium citrate, calcium phosphate, magnesium oxide, ferrous sulfate, zinc sulfate, manganese sulfate, cupric sulfate, sodium iodide, sodium citrate, potassium citrate, potassium chloride, potassium hydroxide, sodium selenite, L-cystine, L-tyrosine, L-tryptophan, taurine, L-carnitine.

- Modified to be better tolerated in milk-allergic babies.
Potential Allergens: Pregestimil contains milk-origin protein hydrolysate and soy ingredients. Pregestimil is hypoallergenic. Rarely, however, allergic reactions to extensively hydrolyzed casein formulas have been reported.
Dilutions And Preparation
A baby’s health depends on carefully following the instructions below. Use only as directed by a medical professional. Improper hygiene, preparation, use, or storage may result in severe harm. Powdered infant formulas are not sterile and should not be fed to premature infants or infants who might have immune problems unless directed and supervised by a doctor. Discuss with parents which formula is appropriate for the baby.
Discuss with parents whether they need to use cooled, boiled water for mixing and whether they need to boil clean utensils, bottles, and nipples in water before use.
WARNING: Do not use a microwave oven to warm formula. Serious burns may result
Refer to the product label for the most accurate information.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in severe harm. Once prepared, infant formula can spoil quickly.
