Pepti Jnr..... experiences?

awwww big hugs hun

Rhiannon ended up on pepti at 12mths and hated it so much she stopped drinking bottles

maybe he needs neocate instead?

He seems ok so far...
Is spewing a bit.. but thjats norm. Maybe it was a coincidence... I hope so.

The hosp gave us 10 tins of the stuff!!

okay he obviously doesnt like peptic, next one to try is neocate.

poor Lachlan and parents, i hope you find a solution soon

Some one on here might want it, or phone biolab and see if you can swap for neocate. Sucks the hospital won't take it back, our paed has a buy back system (although he is private, so probably does things a lot different to public).

Failing that i would sell it on trademe, it's only script cos it costs so much without one, it's not the same as selling a medicine.

cool...
we havent gone to Neocate... we have gone right back to S26.
We decided that if its just his eczema- which we seem to be managing with the natural cream, and the reflux- which we are managing with rinitadine- we will stay with the normal formula and hope he grows out of it soon. I dont know what the right answer is anymore. Paed doesnt seem to either.

Thanks for the help guys.
If you want to buy any Pepti- PM me.

I am surprised they aren't trialing him on neocate instead, neocate is broken right down to amino acids so is no longer cow's milk protein at all (even though technically it is made from milk) pepti isn't though it's just hydrogenised more than the HA one that you can buy at the supermarket so the body can still recognise it as the cow's milk protein and attack it.

The thing with keeping him on the normal formula is that his reaction could become worse, think of how some people get stung by a bee and they are ok and then it happens a few times and they end up being anaphalactic, or those people that use hair dyes all the time and then have a severe reaction, same thing. So by keeping him on it you are likely to prolong his allergy even if you don't make it worse, elimination is the best way to help them out grow it.

Honestly I would phone the paed and ask for the neocate, it won't hurt to try it and also remember you need to try for a week to see results and for their tummy to adjust to the change in formula.
