It is not an AAP recommendation. It is MY recommendation for the following
reasons:
n
n Will reduce bilirubin faster
n Does not expose breastfed infant to whole cow’s milk proteins/soy
protein (especially if family history of allergies)
n Tastes terrible – infant will want to go back to breast
n Very expensive – parents will not want to use it long term
n Conveys the message that this is a different, temporary therapy, not
routine formula feeding
