Reflux is usually diagnosed by a doctor or child health nurse, and switching to a formula for reflex could help reduce symptoms.
However, parents shouldn’t change formula unless advised by their doctor, child health nurse, or dietician.
For those who have been advised to make the switch, the Tell Me Baby community has rated the best formula for reflux they’ve tried and shared their opinions on what has, or hasn’t, worked for them. (Read all of our formula reviews.)

Tell Me Baby parents highly rate Aptamil AR Gold+, a premium infant formula designed to nutritionally support babies from birth to 12 months who have mild milk reflux. It is not suitable for general use and should be used under medical supervision. It is NOT to be used for infants with a diagnosed cows’ milk protein allergy.
One Tell Me Baby reviewer said, “This was a lifesaver for our refluxy baby. We started it for her at about seven months after trying many other formulas.”

Another popular choice for parents. Novalac Reflux is a premium infant formula designed to reduce reflux in babies from 0 to 12 months. It contains a special type of corn-starch that thickens in your baby’s stomach but not in the bottle.
One mum said, “Good for reflux babies, usually reflux babies grow out of it and it’s something they do on there own but this formula is great as it’s thicker and baby can’t bring it up as easy.”
