Prepared infant formula can spoil if it is left out at room temperature. Use prepared infant formula within 2 hours of preparation and within one hour from when feeding begins.

If you do not start to use the prepared infant formula within 2 hours immediately store the bottle in the fridge and use it within 24 hours. If your baby prefers warm formula place a filled bottle in a bowl of warm water and let it stand for a few minutes or warm the bottle under running water.
