Karicare Infant Starter Formula is a whey based Infant Formula specially designed for bottle fed infants from birth when changing from breastfeeding. Karicare Infant Starter Formula can be used as an initial formula for healthy babies. For infants over 6 months Karicare Follow-On is designed to meet the needs of growing infants. Recent recommendations discourage the use of ordinary cow's milk for babies under 12 months of age.
Always wash hands before preparing the feed.
1. Sterilise bottles, teats and utensils by boiling or using an approved sterilising agent.
2. Boil water and allow to cool to approximate feeding temperature (37oC).
3. Measure the volume of cooled, boiled water into a sterilised feeding bottle.
4. Prepare each bottle individually. Fill the scoop lightly and level with a knife, avoid compacting formula. Add the required number of level scoops of powder.
5. Always add one level scoop of powder for each 50mL of water in the feeding bottle. Place cap on the bottle, shake to dissolve the powder.
6. Check the feed is at the right temperature by shaking a few drops on your wrist. Feed immediately.
Use only the included scoop. Store in a cool dry place. After opening keep container airtight and use contens within four weeks. For all brands of formula it is safer to use immediately after they are prepared.
Breast milk is best for babies. Before you decide to use this product, consult your doctor or health worker for advice.
