Never dilute formula to make a tin last longer. Over-diluted feeds cause malnutrition and can cause dangerous swings in a baby’s blood chemistry, and under-diluted feeds strain the kidneys. Follow the scoop measure on the tin exactly, every time.

Preparing feeds safely

Formula is not sterile, and preparation is where most problems arise.

  • Use safe water, boiled and cooled as the instructions direct, and wash and sterilise bottles and teats.
  • Make feeds fresh and discard what is left after the stated time rather than reheating it.
  • Never prop a bottle or leave a baby to feed alone, which risks choking.
  • Check the expiry date and that the seal is intact.

Support and the marketing rules

South African regulations restrict the advertising and promotion of infant formula, including free samples and gifts aimed at parents. Clinics provide free feeding support, and a nurse or lactation adviser can help with feeding difficulties at no cost.

A baby who is not feeding, unusually drowsy, has no wet nappies, or has sunken eyes needs urgent care. Care for children under six is free at public facilities. Ambulance is 10177, or 112 from a mobile. Verified 26 August 2026.
