Product Description

The #1 Infant Formula Brand Fed in Hospitals – Now Hypoallergenic

Developed by Abbott, Similac is the #1 infant formula brand fed in U.S. hospitals and is trusted by parents and healthcare professionals worldwide. Similac Alimentum is a 20 Cal/fl oz, nutritionally complete, hypoallergenic infant formula specifically designed for infants with colic symptoms due to cow‘s milk protein sensitivity, other food allergies, or sensitivity to intact protein. It is also appropriate as a supplemental beverage for children with food allergies or intact protein sensitivity.

What Is Cow’s Milk Protein Allergy (CMPA) and Colic?

Many babies experience colic symptoms (excessive crying and fussiness) that may be caused by an allergy or sensitivity to cow‘s milk proteins present in standard infant formulas. Similac Alimentum is specifically formulated for these sensitive infants.

Extensively Hydrolyzed (Broken Down) Protein

Similac Alimentum contains casein hydrolysate, a milk protein that has been extensively broken down into tiny pieces. This process virtually eliminates the potential for allergic reactions in most babies who are allergic to intact cow’s milk proteins, while still providing the essential amino acids needed for normal growth and development.

First and Only Hypoallergenic Formula with 2‘‑FL HMO

Similac Alimentum is the first and only hypoallergenic infant formula featuring 2’‑FL HMO(2‘‑Fucosyllactose), an immune‑nourishing prebiotic structurally identical to one of the most abundant HMOs found in breast milk. This advanced ingredient helps support your baby’s developing immune system.

Starts Relieving Colic in Most Babies Within 24 Hours†

Based on a clinical study, Similac Alimentum starts reducing colic symptoms due to protein sensitivity in most babies within 24 hours, so your baby can start feeling better today. In the study, 5 out of 6 infants initiated on Similac Alimentum during the first week achieved a reduction in excessive crying.

Optimal Nutrition for Sensitive Infants

Important Clinical Warning:
Similac Alimentum is NOT suitable for infants with galactosemia. It still contains milk proteins in broken‑down form and may not be suitable for infants with confirmed IgE‑mediated cow‘s milk protein allergy (hives, wheezing, anaphylaxis). Consult your pediatrician to determine if an amino acid‑based formula may be required. The powder form contains corn, which may be relevant for infants with corn allergies; the ready‑to‑feed (liquid) form is corn‑free.

📦 Available Packaging Options & Sizes

Powder Formula

Toddler Formula Option

For older babies transitioning from infant formula, Similac Alimentum is also available in a toddler formulation (12 oz powder can). The toddler version is nutritionally adapted for older infants and toddlers with continued protein sensitivity or food allergies.
