Treatment for Cow's Milk Protein Allergy in infants

Successfully managing cow’s milk protein allergy (CMPA) is always easier when it starts with an early, and accurate, diagnosis. Once the diagnosis has been confirmed, ongoing structured support will be required for your baby.

This includes a dietary management plan and monitoring of your baby's growth and development.

Dietary management plan

Breastfeeding
in CMPA

Breastfeeding is the best feeding option for you and your baby. Even if your baby has been diagnosed with CMPA, you should continue breastfeeding.
