CMPA in Infants & Babies

Cow's Milk Allergy (CMA) is one of the most common food allergies, affecting 2-5% of infants in the UK.1

CMA typically develops in an infant’s first year, and it occurs when the immune system reacts inappropriately to a protein in cow's milk.2 The allergic reaction usually causes symptoms like diarrhoea, wheezing and eczema - these symptoms are common in infants who aren't well, so it can take time to diagnose.

Explore the Nutricia Allergy hub for information and guidance written by clinical experts for Healthcare professionals. You can also find information on the Nutricia products available for the dietary management of CMA.
