How to Store Nutramigen

Nutramigen is an infant feed formulated for babies who develop eczema, colic or other gastrointestinal symptoms, owing to allergic reactions to cow milk or soy milk. A lactose-free, hypoallergenic formula produced by Mead Johnson & Company, Nutramigen contains easily digestible hydrolyzed protein. It provides the vital nutrients necessary for your baby's growth development, and is available as a powder, liquid and concentrate. Store Nutramigen safely to prevent contamination and spoilage, and ensure the health and well-being of your baby.
