Hello! I was in this exact same position. There is nothing here that is even in the same league as nutriprem, after lots of research i got double prescriptions in the uk and stockpiled it. My LO was on it from when I stopped BF to about 9 months, at which point he was fine weightwise so we switched to aptamil normal brand. If they are settled on this formula then i would find a way to keep them on it. Prems much more likely to have digestive issues with regular formula changes. HTH!

Hi I've seen pediasure, not sure of spelling. But know my friends early twins were on it in the UK. It's in spinneys. Maybe try pharmacies too or ask your doc for advice as pre term babes over here must be fed something different.

Making an enquiry for a family soon to be moving to Abu Dhabi from the UK with babies who are currently on Nutraprem 2 formula (a Cow & Gate product). Does anyone know if this is available in the UAE? Alternatively, is SMA Gold Prem 2 available here? Would appreciate any help anyone can give. Thanks! best to look in spinneys but you will find that over here they have different stuff, when i was needing that sort of things 15 years ago, i couldnt get pampers large, they just didnt make them, had to get spinneys to import them from uk at twice the price, they didnt have formula milk, again had to bring from uk. you will just have to adapt to what they have here, they have gotten much better over the years though with supply and demand, in the past you had to buy everything on the shelf because you wouldnt see it again for over 6 months.
