Break the Chain with PurAmino™
Provides relief from severe cow's milk protein allergy issues.
Suitable for other conditions requiring an amino acid formula.
Helps babies benefit from complete nutrition so they can grow and thrive.
PurAmino™ significantly improved GI and skin symptoms in infants with suspected CMPA by the next physician visit1
STUDY DESIGN (Wilsey et al. 2023): Prospective cohort analysis of de-identified patient data collected by HCPs who analyzed the clinical profiles ofinfants aged ≤ 6 months displaying symptoms consistent with suspected or diagnosed CMPA who were prescribed an AAF at enrollment (Visit 1) and whose HCPs provided symptom data at Visit 1 and next (Visit 2) at 3 to 6 weeks (n = 104). Study suggests AAF may be effective for CMPA management in infants ≤ 6 months of age.
The percent improvement is calculated by determining the percent difference in the incidence of total presented symptoms (at different severity levels: low, moderate, and severe) between Visit 1 and Visit 2.
AAF = amino acid formula; CMPA = cow’s milk protein allergy
*Number of patients who presented with the reported issue at the first visit and were assessed at the second visit.
PurAmino™ significantly reduced the incidence and severity* of allergic issues at 12 weeks of feeding2
Less vomiting/ spitting up†
Zero watery stools
Reduced atopic dermatitis
PurAmino™ promotes catch up weight gain*
Babies with faltering growth† who were fed PurAmino™ had mean growth curve percentile improvement from 5th to 14th2STUDY DESIGN (Vanderhoof et al. 2016): Observational, prospective, multicenter study of infants (n = 30; 1-12 months of age [mean age 6.6 months]) with a birth weight of ≥1500 g, suspected CMPA (experiencing at least one persistent CMPA symptom), and a history of weight loss (≥0.5 z score) who were not responding to an extensively hydrolyzed formula. Eligible infants received an amino acid–based formula for 12 weeks. Z score improved from -1.6 (5th percentile) to -1.1 (14th percentile) (P < 0.001).
Chart adapted from WHO growth charts 0 to 5 years, boys and girls combined.3
CMPA = cow's milk protein allergy; WHO = World Health Organization
*-0.5 z score at baseline vs +0.433 z score at 12 weeks.
†0.5 z score weight loss when on extensively hydrolyzed formula for 2 weeks.
