eczema - best formula?

[madeindevon2]

my baby suffers from dry skin and eczema.
he was breastfed but now going onto formula at 5 months for lots of reasons
hes having aptamil. is this the best one for his skin?

Did you find that the eczema was worse when on formula?
this happened with ds - he was bf, then I started introducing a bottle and this coincided with his developing eczema. When he was fully ff his eczema was awful.
We use Pepti - a prescription formula for babies with milk protein allergy - and his eczema is almost clear.

I have heard that aptamil is better for allergies, but if excema really bad you can get dairy free formular perscribed! Good luck!
