For Common Feeding Issues Such As Fussiness, Gas, and Spit-up
If you notice common feeding issues such as fussiness, gas, or spit-up, usually the most sensible course is to continue feeding your baby the same brand of formula and not add further changes that can upset her system. However, if these common feeding issues continue, ask your physician about switching to Similac Isomil Advance Soy Formula.
