IMPORTANT NOTICE: SMA infant formulae are intended to replace breast milk when mothers do not breast feed.   Good maternal nutrition is important for the preparation and maintenance of breast feeding. Introducing partial bottle feeding may have a negative effect on breast feeding and reversing a decision not to breast feed is difficult.   Infant formulae should always be prepared and used as directed.  Unnecessary or improper use of infant formula may present a health hazard.  Social and financial implications should be considered when selecting a method of infant feeding. • Soya infant formulae are intended to meet the nutritional needs of infants and children who are intolerant to cows' milk protein, lactose or sucrose.    Soya infant formulae are not recommended for premature babies or those with kidney problems, where medical guidance should always be sought. • Pre-thickened infant formulae are intended to replace breast milk when mothers do not breast feed and when significant reflux (regurgitation) is a problem. If the baby's reflux does not improve within 2 weeks of starting use of a pre-thickened infant formula, or if the infant fails to thrive, the family doctor should be consulted. • SMA PROGRESS is a follow-on milk for babies over 6 months and is not intended to replace breast feeding.  When used in conjunction with solid feeding, it provides the nourishment essential to a baby's healthy and sustained growth.•These products must be used under medical supervision.  • SMA LF is a clinically lactose free milk based formula for the dietary management of infants and young children who are intolerant to lactose or sucrose, or who are suffering from symptoms such as diarrhoea, tummy ache or wind caused by temporary lactose intolerance.  It is suitable as the sole source of nutrition for infants up to six months of age, and in conjunction with solid food, for infants and young children up to eighteen months of age.  SMA LF is not suitable for those who are allergic to cows' milk protein, or who suffer from galactosaemia or require  a galactose free diet.
