OPTILAIT-1 BABY MILK (PWD) 400g

FULL PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Optilait-1 Baby Milk (PWD) 400g is a powdered first-stage infant formula intended for babies from birth. It is designed to provide nutritional support during early infancy when formula feeding is used.

Breast milk is the recommended food for babies, particularly during the first six months of life. When formula feeding is chosen or recommended, an appropriately formulated infant formula can provide an alternative source of nutrition.

Optilait-1 is intended for the first stage of infant feeding and is different from follow-on formulas designed for older babies.

Who is Optilait-1 suitable for?

Optilait-1 is intended for infants from birth.

It is a first-stage formula and should not be confused with follow-on formulas intended for older babies. As the baby grows and reaches the stage when complementary foods are introduced, parents or caregivers should follow appropriate age-specific feeding guidance.

If a baby has a known or suspected cow's milk allergy, persistent digestive symptoms, feeding difficulties, poor weight gain or another medical condition affecting nutrition, consult a qualified healthcare professional before introducing or changing formula.

Feeding and hygiene

Powdered infant formula is not sterile, so careful preparation and hygiene are important. Wash hands before preparing feeds and clean feeding equipment thoroughly after each use.

Prepare feeds according to the recommended instructions and avoid keeping prepared formula for longer than advised.

Parents and caregivers should monitor the baby's feeding, growth and general wellbeing. Seek professional advice if there are concerns about feeding or the baby's nutritional intake.

Storage

Store the unopened 400g pack in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, excessive heat and moisture.

After opening, keep the container securely closed and follow the storage and use instructions on the packaging. Always check the expiry date before use.

Do not use the product if the packaging is damaged, the powder has become damp or it appears contaminated.

Important considerations

Optilait-1 is an infant formula intended for babies from birth. It should be used according to appropriate infant-feeding guidance and the preparation instructions on the pack.

If you are unsure whether formula feeding is appropriate for your baby, or if your baby develops persistent feeding or digestive problems, consult a qualified healthcare professional.
