Is anyones little ones on carobel? Should i cut down the amount of milk shes getting whilst she is taking this?

we used it briefly before we switched to sma staydown for reflux - already has a thickener in it so don't need to add anything (plus she had never settled on a brand anyway before that).
I never cut down her milk, just continued as usual as it just helps the formula staydown.
You can get it on prescription as well if you ask GP..x

My LO has Carobel with every feed.

Just feed as normal, but with the Carobel.

I don't know how long you have been using it for, but they recently changed it. So please make sure you check the boxes - they should now say 'new feeding guide'.

We couldn't understand why we were getting less out of the packet and why Maisie's milk was thicker than usual until we read the box and realised it had been changed!!

Prescription hun, apparently you can buy it from the pharmacy, but I have asked at quite a few and they all told me I had to get it on prescription.

You can ask the chemsit to order it in for you, they usually have to consult the big book and for a small box about the size of a baby porridge box it was over £4.
I have seen it online for cheaper so I guess the price is higher as they have to make a special one off order.
