About this trial

The purpose of this study is to describe the symptoms and their evolution up to the age of 5 years in a population of newly diagnosed infants with a suspected or confirmed allergy to cow proteins, for whom the doctor prescribed the Pepticate® Syneo® replacement formula as soon as they were diagnosed.

The Pepticate® Syneo® product is an advanced protein hydrolyzate, food type intended for special medical purposes. This is a product already available on the market.
