Disease description:
My baby has just switched to a new formula and has developed diarrhea and persistent crying. What are the symptoms of formula allergy in infants?
Symptoms of infant formula allergy in babies include diarrhea, vomiting, irritability and excessive crying, urticaria (hives), constipation, and abdominal discomfort. In severe cases, asthma may also occur. When selecting infant formula, it is recommended to purchase from a reputable local maternity and baby store. If your baby develops an allergic reaction, discontinue the formula immediately—this will typically lead to relief of the allergic symptoms. Additionally, consider switching to an extensively hydrolyzed formula.
