What is the difference between Nutramigen and Nutramigen AA….?
or is there a difference? Also is Neocate in the same category as the Nutramigen formulas? I’m clueless…lol. My son couldn’t tolerate Similac Advance or Nutramigen, gave him bloody diarrhea. So now he’s on Similac Isomil, but it’s made him miserably constipated. I want to do a bit of research on my own so we can discuss it at his next doctors appointment. Thanks a bunch

Nutramigen is a hydrolyzed or elemental protein formula that is lactose free, hypoallergenic, and made of extensively broken down proteins. Nutramigen is good for babies with both cow’s milk protein allergy and soy protein allergy. Alimentum Advance is another brand name for the same kind of formula.
Nutramigen AA and Neocate are the same. Nutramigen AA is a non-allergic formula made of amino acids. This type of formula is for babies who cannot digest Nutramigen because of severe cow’s milk allergy and/or multiple protein allergies (soy, gluten, milk). The great thing about Nutramigen AA is that it can be covered by insurance if it is deemed a medical necessity by the child’s doctor.
