How long does it take for a baby to outgrow a milk protein allergy?

Patient's question:

How long does it take for a baby to outgrow a milk protein allergy?

Doctor's answer:

Baby cow's milk protein allergy, without breast milk, has more frequent bowel movements, severe eczema, and can choose a depth-hydrolyzed protein formula. In this formula, the large cow's milk protein molecules are broken down into smaller fragments, significantly reducing the allergenic components of cow's milk protein, thereby lowering the allergenicity of the modified cow's milk protein. Generally, it usually improves within three to four days. It is recommended to go to the hospital to check for allergens and see if there are any other allergy items.
