Bottle Feeding

Are you bottle feeding your baby?

Then you would know that bottles and teats must be sterilised before use to avoid the risk of infection.

Then you would know that bottles and teats must be sterilised before use to avoid the risk of infection. At Healthpoint Chemist we have a number of systems available, and qualified staff to help you choose one which suit your needs and your budget.

We have the Avent microwave units and Avent electric steam sterilizers, which come with two free bottles and teats.

Infant formula is the only suitable milk substitute to use until a baby is twelve months old. There are many different brands, standards and types of powdered formulas available. The type of formula used is dependent on the age of the baby and of the baby's history, for example: various allergies and lactose intolerance play a part in your choice of formula.

Talk to our Baby Nurse or Pharmacist. They can recommend a suitable formula for your baby. We stock the leading brands in bottles and teats, including Avent, Pigeon and Cannon.

Feel free to come in to Healthpoint Chemist and ask our friendly staff for advice.
