Braymil Preterm Infant Formula | Low Birth Weight | 400g

Braymil Preterm Formula LBW is a clinically formulated preterm infant formula developed by Nutribray Healthcare Pvt. Ltd. for babies born before 37 weeks or with a birth weight below 2.5 kg. It provides higher calorie and protein density than standard infant formula to support the catch-up growth that premature and low birth weight babies need in their earliest weeks.

This is a specialised medical nutrition product. It should be used under the supervision of a neonatologist or paediatrician and is not intended as a general substitute for breast milk.

Who This Formula Is For

• Preterm babies born before 37 weeks of gestation
• Low birth weight infants with a birth weight below 2.5 kg
• Newborns requiring nutritional support for catch-up growth
• Infants transitioning from hospital to home feeding, as directed by a doctor

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between preterm formula and standard infant formula?
Preterm formula has a higher calorie density, more protein, and added MCT fats compared to standard infant formula. These adjustments meet the elevated nutritional needs of premature babies, whose organs and digestive systems are still developing outside the womb.

What does MCT do in a formula for premature babies?
MCT (Medium Chain Triglycerides) are fats that are absorbed directly into the bloodstream without requiring bile acids. Since preterm infants produce limited bile, MCT provides an efficient energy source that standard long-chain fats cannot match at this stage.

At what weight can a baby move from LBW formula to standard formula?
The transition is typically recommended once a baby reaches a corrected age and weight determined by the treating paediatrician or neonatologist. This varies per baby and should not be done without a clinical assessment.

Can this preterm infant formula be used at home after NICU discharge?
Yes. Braymil Preterm Formula LBW is suitable for continued use at home following hospital discharge, as long as the treating doctor confirms it is still appropriate for the baby's current weight and condition.

Does this formula contain lactose?
The lactose content is reduced compared to standard infant formula, with MCT and other fats compensating for energy. For the exact lactose value, refer to the nutrition panel on the pack or consult your paediatrician.

Is Braymil Preterm Formula suitable for twins or multiple birth babies?
It can be used for multiple birth babies who are preterm or low birth weight, but each baby's feeding plan should be assessed individually by the treating doctor, as nutritional requirements vary.
