  • Contact your healthcare provider if you or your patient is experiencing diarrhea.
  • Diarrhea may occur if formula is spoiled. If you or your patient is experiencing diarrhea, try mixing/preparing new formula before each feeding.
  • Diarrhea can also occur when formula is delivered too quickly. If you or your patient is experiencing diarrhea, try delivering formula at a slower rate.
  • Cleanliness is also very important. ALL CAREGIVERS SHOULD WASH THEIR HANDS THOROUGHLY PRIOR TO PREPARING THE FORMULA AND HANDLING THE FEEDING SETS.
  • Make sure the feed set is rinsed thoroughly to avoid soap in the formula.
