Abstract The effect of different feeding regimens, notably the use of hydrolysed cow’s milk formulas, on the development of allergic reactions and the development of cow’s milk protein-IgG antibodies is still disputed. We prospectively compared the development of allergic manifestations and cow’s milk protein-IgG antibodies in a total of 702 infants who were divided into six groups: 1. exclusively breast milk for at least 4 weeks (n = 206). 2. Breast milk plus initial partially hydrolysed formula (n = 104). 3. Breast milk plus extensively hydrolysed formula (n = 50). 4. Breast milk plus initial conventional cow’s milk formula (n = 73). 5. Conventional cow’s milk with or without breast milk throughout (n = 187). 6. Extensively hydrolysed cow’s milk formula for 2 months, followed by conventional cow’s milk (n = 82).
