Product Details

Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare Infant Formula with Iron is a milk-based infant formula designed with enriched nutrition for infants who were born prematurely or with low birth weight; it is typically used during the first 12 months of life for infants from approximately 1,800 grams in weight. This unique formula contains a 80:20 whey to casein ratio patterned after early breast milk; a 20% fat blend created from medium-chain triglycerides (MCT) oil; MFGM (Milk Fat Globule Membrane - a source of fats and proteins previously only found in breast milk); nucleotides patterned after the average free nucleotide level in human milk; and expert-recommended amounts of DHA (docosahexaenoic acid; an omega-3 fatty acid) and ARA (important fatty acids found naturally in breast milk) to support brain and eye development. Plus, premature babies fed milk-based, Enfamil formula during the first year have achieved catch-up growth similar to that of full-term, breastfed infants.

How to Use Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare Ready-to-Use Infant Formula

Total Time: Approximately 5 minutes

1 
Consult Your Pediatrician

Before using Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare, confirm with your pediatrician that this premature infant formula is appropriate for your baby's specific needs. This formula is designed for infants born prematurely or with low birth weight (approximately 1,800 grams or less).

2 
Check the Bottle

Inspect the Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare Nursette bottle for any damage or leaks. Check the expiration date on the bottle to ensure freshness.

3 
Shake the Bottle

Gently shake the ready-to-use Nursette bottle to ensure the enriched formula is well-mixed. This ensures consistent nutrition, including the 80:20 whey to casein ratio and MCT oil blend, in every feeding.

4 
Warm if Desired (Optional)

If your baby prefers warm formula, place the sealed bottle in warm (not hot) water for a few minutes.

?? WARNING: Never use a microwave oven to warm formula as it can create hot spots that may cause serious burns. Always test the temperature on your wrist before feeding.
5 
Remove Cap and Attach Nipple

Remove the cap from the Nursette bottle and attach a clean, sterilized premature infant nipple or standard nipple as recommended by your healthcare provider. Ensure the nipple is securely fastened to prevent leaks.

6 
Test Temperature

Before feeding, place a few drops of formula on the inside of your wrist to test the temperature. It should feel lukewarm, not hot. This is especially important for premature infants.

7 
Feed Your Baby

Hold your baby at a comfortable angle and begin feeding according to your pediatrician's guidance. The ready-to-use 2 oz. Nursette bottle provides 22 calories per fluid ounce for enhanced nutrition. Premature infants may need smaller, more frequent feedings.

8 
Monitor Feeding Progress

Watch your baby for signs of fullness or distress during feeding. Premature infants may tire more easily during feedings. If your baby shows signs of fatigue, consult your pediatrician about feeding schedules.

9 
Discard Unused Formula

Discard any formula left in the bottle after feeding. Never save or reuse partially consumed bottles as bacteria can grow rapidly in formula.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare and who is it for?
Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare is a specialized milk-based infant formula designed with enriched nutrition specifically for infants who were born prematurely or with low birth weight (approximately 1,800 grams or less). It provides enhanced nutrition to support catch-up growth during the first 12 months of life and is often recommended for use through 9 months of age. This formula is formulated to help premature babies achieve growth similar to full-term, breastfed infants.
What makes Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare different from regular infant formula?
Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare provides 22 calories per fluid ounce (compared to 20 calories in standard formulas) for enhanced nutrition. It contains an 80:20 whey to casein ratio patterned after early breast milk, a 20% fat blend with medium-chain triglycerides (MCT oil) for easier digestion, MFGM (Milk Fat Globule Membrane) and DHA to support brain development, and expert-recommended amounts of DHA and ARA for brain and eye development. It also includes a blend of nutrients to support immune system development and is Non-GMO.
How long should my baby use Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare?
Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare is typically used during the first 12 months of life for premature or low birth weight infants. However, it is often recommended to be used through 9 months of age as a post-discharge formula after leaving the NICU. Always consult with your pediatrician about the appropriate duration for your baby's specific needs and when to transition to a standard infant formula.
Can I use EnfaCare if my baby wasn't premature?
Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare is specifically formulated for infants born prematurely or with low birth weight. If your baby was born full-term and at a healthy weight, a standard infant formula like Enfamil NeuroPro Infant Formula would be more appropriate. Always consult your pediatrician before choosing or changing your baby's formula to ensure it meets their specific nutritional needs.
How should I store Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare Ready-to-Use bottles?
Store unopened Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare Ready-to-Use Nursette bottles in a cool, dry place at room temperature. Once opened, any unused formula should be discarded immediately. Do not refrigerate and reuse opened bottles. The case of 48 bottles (2 oz each) provides convenient, pre-measured servings that maintain freshness until opened.
Can I warm Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare formula in the microwave?
No, never use a microwave oven to warm formula. Microwaving can create dangerous hot spots in the formula that may cause serious burns to your baby's mouth and throat, which is especially risky for premature infants. Instead, warm the sealed bottle by placing it in a container of warm (not boiling) water for a few minutes. Always test the temperature on your wrist before feeding to ensure it's lukewarm, not hot.
 
What are MFGM, DHA, and ARA in EnfaCare?
MFGM (Milk Fat Globule Membrane) is a source of fats and proteins previously only found in breast milk. DHA (docosahexaenoic acid) is an omega-3 fatty acid, and ARA is an important fatty acid found naturally in breast milk. Together, these nutrients support brain and eye development, which is especially important for premature infants. EnfaCare contains expert-recommended amounts of DHA and ARA to help support your baby's developing brain and vision during this critical growth phase.
Why does EnfaCare have 22 calories per ounce instead of 20?
Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare provides 22 calories per fluid ounce (compared to 20 calories in standard formulas) because premature and low birth weight infants often need enhanced nutrition to support catch-up growth. This higher caloric density helps premature babies gain weight and develop at a rate similar to full-term, breastfed infants without requiring them to consume larger volumes of formula at each feeding.
What are medium-chain triglycerides (MCT oil) and why are they in EnfaCare?
Medium-chain triglycerides (MCT oil) are a type of fat that is more easily digested and absorbed than other fats. Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare contains a 20% fat blend with MCT oil because premature infants often have immature digestive systems and may have difficulty digesting and absorbing fats. The MCT oil helps ensure your baby gets the nutrition they need from each feeding while being gentler on their developing digestive system.
Is Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare Non-GMO?
Yes, Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare features a Non-GMO formulation, meaning it contains no genetically modified ingredients. This provides peace of mind for parents who prefer Non-GMO products for their babies, especially during this critical developmental period.
How long can EnfaCare formula sit out after opening?
Once you open an Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare Ready-to-Use Nursette bottle and begin feeding, the formula should be used within one hour. If your baby doesn't finish the bottle within an hour, or if the formula has been at room temperature for more than 2 hours before feeding begins, discard it. Never save and reuse partially consumed bottles, as bacteria from your baby's saliva can grow rapidly in formula. This is especially important for premature infants who may have developing immune systems.
What is the 80:20 whey to casein ratio in EnfaCare?
The 80:20 whey to casein ratio in Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare means that 80% of the protein comes from whey and 20% from casein. This ratio is patterned after early breast milk and is easier to digest than the 60:40 ratio found in mature breast milk and most standard formulas. This makes it particularly suitable for premature infants whose digestive systems are still developing.
When will my Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare order arrive?
This product typically is delivered in 2-4 business days. Delivery times may vary based on your location and shipping method selected. The 48-count case provides a convenient supply of formula for premature infants, reducing the need for frequent reordering during this important time.
Can I mix Enfamil NeuroPro EnfaCare with other formulas?
You should not mix different formula brands or types without consulting your pediatrician first, especially when dealing with a specialized formula like EnfaCare. If you're transitioning from EnfaCare to another formula (such as when moving from a premature formula to a standard formula), speak with your healthcare provider about the best approach. They will guide you on the appropriate timing and method for transitioning to ensure your baby continues to receive proper nutrition.
