The aim of the study is to assess the effectiveness of this new formula on regurgitations and secondarily its effect on digestive tolerance through a randomized, controlled, double-blind trial against a comparator.
The study duration is 1 month and 2 days. It is possible to add 2 additional months (optional).

The 2 first days (from D-3 to D0) correspond to the pre-selection period. These 2 days are followed by the follow-up month (from D0 to D30). It is possible to add an optional follow up of 2 months (form D30 to D90).

Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

≥ 2 regurgitation episodes per day during the last 2 weeks and ≥ 4 regurgitation episodes per day in average during the last 2 days,
