Giving away a Neocate sample box

6 replies

Hello,
I've been given a sample box of Neocate by my doctor but I don't want to use it with my DD (I'll stick to BF!).
Anyone interested, or any idea where I could go to give it away? I can't go back to the allergist, it's a bit too far from my home.

I'm a bit reluctant to throw it away considering how much it costs without a prescription...

I've seen people selling nutramigen on ebay, if you wanted to do it on a not-for-profit basis you could put it on a listing with a low fixed price, or do a charity listing.

I'm in a similar situation, DS has been given a time of Neocate formula which I've not opened. I can't decide if I want to use it or not! (Still EBF)

Another one to join this list Smile

DD is on neocate LCP but as she is now a toddler the GP decided to try her on neocate active which she reacted too Sad

I have an unopened box of it and have not decided what to do with it either....

Just joined after seeing your posts about the free neocate. My daughter was born abroad and put on Neocate. Since returning to the UK a couple of months ago we are still waiting for her appointment with the UK specialist. I would therefore be more than happy to take the milk off your hands as my GP is reluctant to prescribe until appointment has come through. Are any of the cans still available????

How old is your DD??

The neocate I have is for over 1. Its neocate active and comes in sachets but you are more than welcome to have it Smile

Hi all,
Just joined after reading posts for neocate.
My daughter is 8 months old and is on neocate lcp since 3 months. she is BF and on neocate lcp.she is allergic to all other milks except neocate. I am presently out of UK for holiday and the GP is rejecting to give her prescription until she is back in UK. I will be really grateful if someone can supply me with some cans. My husband is in Reading, and he can collect. Please let me know, if any cans available. My email [email protected]
