“What is SMA Wysoy?”

SMA Wysoy is a nutritionally-complete infant formula based on soya protein rather than cows’ milk protein, which makes it suitable for babies with cows' milk intolerance.

Cows’ milk intolerance is when the digestive system finds it difficult to cope with one or more of the ingredients in cows' milk and can result in a variety of symptoms, including eczema, vomiting, diarrhoea and stomach cramps. If you suspect your baby has cows’ milk intolerance, talk to your GP or other healthcare professional, who might be able to prescribe a cows’ milk free formula, such as SMA Wysoy.

Did you know?

SMA Wysoy is approved by the Vegetarian Society and is often used by parents who wish their baby to have soya-based infant formula for religious or cultural reasons.

“When should I use SMA Wysoy?”

SMA Wysoy can be used from birth onwards and can also be used as part of an older baby or toddler’s varied weaning diet. However, it should only be used if your baby has a cows’ milk intolerance or if you have other reasons for wanting your baby to have a soya-based infant milk.

Always consult your doctor or healthcare professional before making any changes to your choice of baby’s milk.

“What are the benefits of using SMA Wysoy?”

If your baby has cows' milk intolerance, you should completely remove cows' milk and any products containing cows' milk from her diet. SMA Wysoy, with its soya protein base, is a useful alternative to cows’ milk.

“Which formats are available?”

Wysoy is available on prescription from your GP and is also available at most supermarkets and high street pharmacies.

430 g and 860 g cans of powder

If you have any concerns about your baby, contact your GP or other healthcare professional.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: Breast feeding is best for babies. Infant formulae are intended to replace breast milk when mothers do not breast feed. Good maternal nutrition is important for preparation and maintenance of breast feeding. Introducing partial bottle feeding may have a negative effect on breast feeding and reversing a decision not to breast feed is difficult. You should always seek the advice of a doctor, midwife, health visitor, public health nurse, dietitian or pharmacist on the need for and proper method of use of infant milks and on all matters of infant feeding. Infant formulae should always be prepared and used as directed. Unnecessary or improper use of infant formulae may present a health hazard. Social and financial implications should be considered when selecting a method of infant feeding. Soya infant formulae are intended to meet the nutritional needs of infants and children who are intolerant to cows’ milk protein, lactose or sucrose. Soya infant formulae are not recommended for premature babies or those with kidney problems, where medical guidance should always be sought.
