Growth and tolerance studies of a new infant formula.
A new routine infant formula has been developed and clinically tested. The clinical study reported here involved 337 normal newborns cared for by six private pediatric group practices. Infants were examined regularly by the investigators until six months of age. Serum biochemistries, hematology, and growth and tolerance variables were compared to infants fed control formulas and to reported values for breast-fed infants. This new formulation compared favorably, in all areas studied here, to controls and previously reported values.
