What is Reflux?
Reflux affects over 40% of babies in the first year of life. Reflux often occurs because a baby’s digestive system is immature.
SMA® Anti-Reflux is a nutritionally complete formula for the dietary management of babies with frequent reflux (regurgitation/spitting up). It can be used as the sole source of nutrition from birth in place of your usual formula feed and can be mixed with foods once weaning has begun.
You may notice a change in baby’s stool when changing to SMA® Anti-Reflux. This is due to the different ingredients and is normal.
Thicker formula requires a fast flow-teat.
How to prepare your baby’s feed

And here is how you prepare it step by step
While this product is made under strict hygienic conditions, it is not sterile. Failure to follow instructions may make your baby ill.
1
Wash hands well. Wash and sterilise all utensils according to manufacturers’ instructions.
2
Boil 1 litre of fresh tap water. Allow boiled water to cool for no more than 30 minutes. Measure the required amount of water (see feeding guide) into a sterilised bottle, carefully – the water is hot. Do not use artificially softened or repeatedly boiled water.
3
Place the sterilised fast flow teat and cap on the bottle. Cool bottle under cold running water until lukewarm.
4
Using only the scoop provided, add the correct number of scoops of the powder (see feeding guide) levelling off each scoop with the back of a clean, dry knife. Store the scoop in suspension inside the can and replace the lid.
5
Place the sterilised fast flow teat and cap on the bottle and shake vigorously. Shake 5 seconds forward/backwards and then 10 seconds up and down until powder has fully dissolved. Test temperature by shaking a few drops on to the inside of your wrist – formula should be lukewarm. Can be fed immediately after preparation.
