Dear valued customer,
Nutricia North America Inc. (Nutricia), as part of the Danone global business, is working closely with Health Canada to help ensure infants with a medical need for a hypoallergenic formula have access to one during the hypoallergenic infant formula shortage crisis.
Under the Health Canada Interim Policy (Interim policy on the importation and sale of infant formulas, human milk fortifiers (HMF) and metabolic products for inborn errors of metabolism to mitigate shortages. – Canada.ca), Nutricia in Canada has worked to import two whey-based extensively hydrolyzed formulas (eHFs): Aptamil® Pepti 1, from the UK and Aptamil®ProExpert Pepti from Brazil. These formulas are brought to you to help alleviate the shortage of hypoallergenic formula. Aptamil Pepti 1 and Aptamil ProExpert Pepti should be used under medical supervision.
Aptamil Pepti 1 and Aptamil ProExpert Pepti formulas are nutritionally complete, hypoallergenic and contain galacto- and fructo- oligosaccharides. Both formulas are suitable for the dietary management of cow milk allergy (CMA) in infants 0 to 12 months. They can be used as sole source nutrition from birth to 6 months and as part of a mixed diet in infants over the age of 6 months.
Aptamil Pepti 1 and Aptamil ProExpert Pepti are made available across the country to help support the access to hypoallergenic products.
Please note that you might have access to one or both products at a time depending on your region and on the availability of the products, but be assured that both products are very similar and can be used interchangeably. If you have concerns, please discuss with your healthcare professional.
