Taste
Like Alimentum, the smell and taste are detestable but bearable if the baby is well prepared. But it is the only choice if the baby is intolerant to lactose and daily-based formulas.
Price
Nutramigen is a specialized formula so it is expected to be a little pricier than generical formulas. However, bulk buying has been found to be fairly cheaper and a better way to save some few dollars.
