Milk Allergy

my son was just diagnosed with severe atopic eczema. The Ped believes it is caused by a milk allergy. futhermore the rash has oepned into sores that have become infected with staph and fungus. Hes on a steroid cream, an antiobiotic cream and an oral antiobiotic.

but they also switched his formula to Nutramigen Enfamil. Is anyone else on it? i keep hearing its very expensive (we have a month supply right now from the ped office). How expensive is it exactly? Where can we buy it ? im not finding it anywhere but online.

WOW! My brothers kid is like that! he has like baby acnme on his face and after a few days on nutramigen his face cleared up! its like 20 dollars for a can of the powder! Get a prescription and wic will pay plus see if u can get food stamps and it will pay!

Well I work at Wal-Mart in Wisconsin (and Lord knows there are WalMarts everywhere lol) and they sell it there, and it is close to $30 a can. But like the other person said, apply for WIC they can help cover some of the cost!!

Try to apply for WIC if you can!

I have also heard it was expensive so when I went to Target to buy formula, I looked at the Nutrimigen... and for the SMALL can it was twenty something dollars!
