How to Store Nutramigen
Nutramigen is an infant feed formulated for babies who develop eczema, colic or other gastrointestinal symptoms, owing to allergic reactions to cow milk or soy milk. A lactose-free, hypoallergenic formula produced by Mead Johnson &Company, Nutramigen contains easily digestible hydrolyzed protein. It provides the vital nutrients necessary for your baby's growth development, and is available as a powder, liquid and concentrate. Store Nutramigen safely to prevent contamination and spoilage, and ensure the health and well-being of your baby.
Instructions
Place the unopened Nutramigen container in a cool dark place. Store it away from sources of moisture, heat and direct sunlight, which can cause the formula to deteriorate. Do not refrigerate Nutramigen until it is mixed.
Prepare Nutramigen formula and feed immediately or store safely to prevent it from getting spoiled. Store prepared formula in a feeding bottle or covered glass or ceramic container, in the refrigerator. Keep prepared powder formulas in the refrigerator for 24 hours, and ready-to-use liquid and concentrate liquid formulas for 48 hours.
Maintain the refrigerator temperature at 40 degrees Fahrenheit. Feed the prepared formula within 1 hour of taking it out of the refrigerator.
Discard any remaining formula remaining in the bottle or container within 1 hour of feeding. Do not refrigerate for later feedings. Clean and sterilize the feeding utensils including bottles, nipples, caps and containers.
Always keep opened containers of Nutramigen powder formula covered with the plastic lid. Store the container at room temperature and use within 30 days of opening.
