Aptamil Comfort Stage 1 Baby Milk Formula 800Gm is the larger value pack of Nutricia's specialist infant formula for babies aged 0 to 6 months experiencing colic or constipation. The aptamil comfort 1 800g size gives roughly two to three weeks of feeds at typical Stage 1 intake, which suits parents whose pediatrician has confirmed Aptamil Comfort works for their baby. The formula combines partially hydrolysed whey protein, reduced lactose, a GOS/FOS prebiotic blend and a beta-palmitate fat blend to support easier digestion.
Why It Is Safe and Effective
Aptamil Comfort is a food for special medical purposes and should be used under healthcare supervision. It is nutritionally complete and can serve as the sole source of nutrition from birth, or as part of a weaning diet from 6 months. The formula draws on Nutricia's 120 years of early-life nutrition expertise and contains oligosaccharides (GOS/FOS) similar to those in breast milk, plus iron, calcium, vitamin D and DHA for growth and brain development.
Safety Information
Breastfeeding is best for babies. Aptamil Comfort should only be used under medical supervision after discussing feeding options with your doctor or pediatrician. Not suitable for babies with cow's milk protein allergy, classic galactosaemia or significant lactose intolerance. Not suitable for vegetarians or intravenous use. Stool colour and consistency may change with this formula, which is generally expected. If symptoms do not improve or you notice signs of allergy, consult your healthcare professional. Once opened, the 800g pack should be used within the timeframe printed on the can. Prepare each bottle fresh, never reheat in the microwave, and store the unopened pack in a cool dry place.
The 800g pack uses the same clinically researched composition as the smaller Aptamil Comfort Stage 1 sizes.
• Partially Hydrolysed Whey Protein: smaller protein fragments that are easier on a sensitive tummy
• Reduced Lactose: lower lactose level than standard infant formula for mild lactose digestion
• GOS/FOS Prebiotic Blend: patented galacto- and fructo-oligosaccharides that support healthy gut flora and softer stools
• Beta-Palmitate Fat Blend: structured fats that help soften stools and improve calcium absorption
• DHA (Omega-3) and ARA: essential fatty acids that support brain and eye development
• Iron, Calcium, Vitamin D and Full Vitamin/Mineral Profile: complete daily nutrition for infants from birth
Always follow the preparation instructions on the pack. The formula has a slightly thicker texture, so a variable-flow or medium-fast flow teat is recommended.
