strongly suspected \u003cstrong\u003ecow's milk protein allergy (CMPA)\u003c\/strong\u003e. Like Pepti 1, its whey protein is \u003cstrong\u003eextensively hydrolysed\u003c\/strong\u003e. This listing is a single 800 g box, roughly 169 fl oz of prepared formula.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a clinical product, not a premium upgrade. Aptamil is made by \u003cstrong\u003eNutricia\u003c\/strong\u003e, Danone's clinical nutrition division, and in the UK Pepti 2 is ACBS-approved and prescribable on FP10 — doctors write it for babies whose milk allergy is confirmed. If nobody has diagnosed your baby yet, the right next step is your paediatrician or an allergy dietitian, not a different box of powder.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe age rule here is firm and worth repeating: Nutricia's own clinical guidance states Pepti 2 is \u003cstrong\u003eonly suitable from 6 months, as part of a mixed diet\u003c\/strong\u003e — not before. A baby under six months with a milk allergy stays on Aptamil Pepti 1, which is a complete food on its own. Pepti 2 assumes solids are part of the picture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere it sits in the feeding journey: this is the stage after \u003cstrong\u003eAptamil Pepti 1\u003c\/strong\u003e, for a baby who has started weaning but still needs extensively hydrolysed nutrition. Moving from Pepti 1 to Pepti 2 is not automatic at six months — some babies stay on stage one longer, and some are ready to trial ordinary milk protein again under supervision. Your care team decides, not the calendar. Breastfeeding, where possible, remains the first option throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"stats\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"stat s-b\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFrom 6 mo\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAs part of a mixed diet\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"stat s-g\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e800 g\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSingle box\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"stat s-a\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003e~169 fl oz\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e≈ 34 × 5 oz bottles (est.)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"stat s-b\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eeHF\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExtensively hydrolysed whey\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"fine\"\u003eNote on this page's web address: the URL for this listing contains the words \"stage-1\" because it was created by duplicating the Pepti 1 page.

In an \u003cstrong\u003eextensively hydrolysed formula\u003c\/strong\u003e, the cutting goes much further than in a partially hydrolysed \"HA\" milk — far enough that the immune system of most allergic infants no longer recognises the fragments as the protein it reacts to.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoving to stage two does not step that down. Pepti 2 is \u003cstrong\u003eextensively hydrolysed, exactly like Pepti 1\u003c\/strong\u003e — the change between the stages is the micronutrient profile for an older infant, not a softening of the hypoallergenic function.

Extensively hydrolysed formulas taste and smell noticeably stronger and more bitter than ordinary milk — savoury, sometimes described as broth-like. This is normal and expected, not a sign of spoilage. A six-month-old who has been on Pepti 1 since birth is already used to it; a baby meeting it for the first time at this age usually needs several days of gradual mixing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sci\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sci-row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sci-h\" style=\"color:#3E7A46\"\u003eExtensively hydrolysed \u003cem\u003e· Aptamil Pepti\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csvg viewbox=\"0 0 292 70\" role=\"img\" aria-label=\"Diagram: the whey protein chain is cut into many short peptide fragments, shown as small separated segments\"\u003e\n\u003cline x1=\"14\" y1=\"35\" x2=\"38\" y2=\"35\" stroke=\"#C2D8C5\" stroke-width=\"5\"\u003e\u003c\/line\u003e\n\u003cline x1=\"56\" y1=\"35\" x2=\"78\" y2=\"35\" stroke=\"#C2D8C5\" stroke-width=\"5\"\u003e\u003c\/line\u003e\n\u003cline x1=\"96\" y1=\"35\" x2=\"118\" y2=\"35\" stroke=\"#C2D8C5\" stroke-width=\"5\"\u003e\u003c\/line\u003e\n\u003cline x1=\"136\" y1=\"35\" x2=\"158\" y2=\"35\" stroke=\"#C2D8C5\" stroke-width=\"5\"\u003e\u003c\/line\u003e\n\u003cline x1=\"176\" y1=\"35\" x2=\"198\" y2=\"35\" stroke=\"#C2D8C5\" stroke-width=\"5\"\u003e\u003c\/line\u003e\n\u003cline x1=\"216\" y1=\"35\" x2=\"238\" y2=\"35\" stroke=\"#C2D8C5\" stroke-width=\"5\"\u003e\u003c\/line\u003e\n\u003cline x1=\"256\" y1=\"35\" x2=\"278\" y2=\"35\" stroke=\"#C2D8C5\" stroke-width=\"5\"\u003e\u003c\/line\u003e\n\u003ccircle cx=\"26\" cy=\"35\" r=\"8\" fill=\"#3E7A46\"\u003e\u003c\/circle\u003e\n\u003ccircle cx=\"67\" cy=\"35\" r=\"8\" fill=\"#3E7A46\"\u003e\u003c\/circle\u003e\n\u003ccircle cx=\"107\" cy=\"35\" r=\"8\" fill=\"#3E7A46\"\u003e\u003c\/circle\u003e\n\u003ccircle cx=\"147\" cy=\"35\" r=\"8\" fill=\"#3E7A46\"\u003e\u003c\/circle\u003e\n\u003ccircle cx=\"187\" cy=\"35\" r=\"8\" fill=\"#3E7A46\"\u003e\u003c\/circle\u003e\n\u003ccircle cx=\"227\" cy=\"35\" r=\"8\" fill=\"#3E7A46\"\u003e\u003c\/circle\u003e\n\u003ccircle cx=\"267\" cy=\"35\" r=\"8\" fill=\"#3E7A46\"\u003e\u003c\/circle\u003e\n\u003ctext x=\"146\" y=\"63\" text-anchor=\"middle\" font-size=\"11\" fill=\"#3E7A46\" font-weight=\"700\"\u003emany short peptides\u003c\/text\u003e\n\u003c\/svg\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sci-row\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"sci-h\" style=\"color:#8A939C\"\u003ePartially hydrolysed \u003cem\u003e· HA formulas\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003csvg viewbox=\"0 0 292 70\" role=\"img\" aria-label=\"Diagram: the whey protein chain is cut only in two places, leaving three long fragments\"\u003e\n\u003cline x1=\"14\" y1=\"35\" x2=\"96\" y2=\"35\" stroke=\"#E7E3D9\" stroke-width=\"5\"\u003e\u003c\/line\u003e\n\u003cline x1=\"112\" y1=\"35\" x2=\"196\" y2=\"35\" stroke=\"#E7E3D9\" stroke-width=\"5\"\u003e\u003c\/line\u003e\n\u003cline x1=\"212\" y1=\"35\" x2=\"278\" y2=\"35\" stroke=\"#E7E3D9\" stroke-width=\"5\"\u003e\u003c\/line\u003e\n\u003ccircle cx=\"34\" cy=\"35\" r=\"8\" fill=\"#8A939C\"\u003e\u003c\/circle\u003e\n\u003ccircle cx=\"76\" cy=\"35\" r=\"8\" fill=\"#8A939C\"\u003e\u003c\/circle\u003e\n\u003ccircle cx=\"132\" cy=\"35\" r=\"8\" fill=\"#8A939C\"\u003e\u003c\/circle\u003e\n\u003ccircle cx=\"176\" cy=\"35\" r=\"8\" fill=\"#8A939C\"\u003e\u003c\/circle\u003e\n\u003ccircle cx=\"232\" cy=\"35\" r=\"8\" fill=\"#8A939C\"\u003e\u003c\/circle\u003e\n\u003ccircle cx=\"264\" cy=\"35\" r=\"8\" fill=\"#8A939C\"\u003e\u003c\/circle\u003e\n\u003ctext x=\"146\" y=\"63\" text-anchor=\"middle\" font-size=\"11\" fill=\"#8A939C\" font-weight=\"700\"\u003ea few long fragments\u003c\/text\u003e\n\u003c\/svg\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"sci-note\"\u003eThe difference is degree, and it decides who the formula is for.

One more honest note on HA 2: its stated starting age differs between sources, from five to seven months, so treat six months as the conservative floor and ask your health visitor.

A baby with a confirmed cow's milk protein allergy still reacts to the intact milk protein in a standard follow-on formula, which is why Pepti 2 keeps the same extensive hydrolysis as Pepti 1.
