HiPP Dutch Hypoallergenic Formula Stage 2 for Babies 6 to 12 Months
HiPP Dutch Hypoallergenic Formula Stage 2 is a partially hydrolyzed follow-on formula for infants from 6 months who have been fed on an HA formula from birth and are continuing an allergy-risk-reduction approach alongside solid foods. As always, the decision to use and continue a hypoallergenic formula should be made in consultation with your pediatrician. Breast milk can remain a valuable part of your baby's diet through the first year.
HiPP: A Trusted Name in European Infant Nutrition
HiPP has been developing infant formula since 1899 in Germany and is today one of Europe's most recognized names in baby nutrition. The company is family-owned, led by Stefan Hipp in its fourth generation, and is known for rigorous ingredient standards across its product ranges.
Like Stage 1, HiPP Dutch HA Stage 2 is not EU organic certified. Because partially hydrolyzed whey protein cannot be produced in certified organic form, the HA line sits outside the organic labeling framework. It is Halal-certified.
Continuing the HA Journey from 6 Months
Stage 2 is formulated for babies from 6 months who are beginning to eat solid foods and transitioning from HiPP Dutch HA Formula Stage 1. It continues the partially hydrolyzed whey protein approach designed to support ongoing allergy-risk reduction during the weaning period.
As with Stage 1, this formula is not suitable for infants with a diagnosed cow's milk protein allergy (CMPA). Partially hydrolyzed formula is a preventive option for at-risk infants, not a treatment for confirmed allergy. If your child has a confirmed CMPA diagnosis, your doctor will recommend an appropriate extensively hydrolyzed or amino-acid-based alternative.
Ingredients and Composition
The protein base is partially hydrolyzed cow's milk whey. The carbohydrate source is lactose with galacto-oligosaccharides (GOS) derived from lactose. No starch or maltodextrin is listed in Stage 2. The vegetable oil blend includes palm oil from sustainable cultivation. DHA is sourced from fish oil.
ARA is not present in Stage 2 (it is present in Stage 1 but not in the follow-on stage). The formula is not organic certified, and does not carry the EU organic leaf logo or HiPP Bio-Siegel. See the full HiPP hypoallergenic formula collection for the complete HA range.

Preparation and Everyday Use
Prepare each feed fresh following the instructions on the can. At this stage, formula feeds are one part of a broader diet that includes solid foods. Your pediatrician can advise on the appropriate volume and frequency of formula alongside weaning.
Powdered infant formula is not sterile. Use boiled, appropriately cooled water as directed, and do not store reconstituted formula beyond the manufacturer's recommended time.
Packaging at a Glance
- Net weight: 800g per can
- Includes a measuring scoop inside the can
- Best-before date in European DD/MM/YYYY format
- Not EU organic certified (partially hydrolyzed HA line)
How to Prepare Powdered Formula
- Boil fresh water for each feed and let it cool to the temperature printed on your can. Powdered infant formula is not sterile, so the CDC and WHO advise that water at about 158°F (70°C) lowers the risk of Cronobacter, especially for newborns and higher-risk infants. Follow your can's instructions and ask your pediatrician which approach is right for your baby.
- Pour about two-thirds of the required water into a clean, sterilized bottle.
- Use only the scoop provided with your formula pack (sizes may vary). Add the correct number of level scoops - 1 scoop per 1 oz / 30 ml of water.
- Close the bottle with the nipple and cap. Shake vigorously until all powder is dissolved.
- Add the remaining water and shake again.
- Cool to drinking temperature (approx. 98 °F / 37 °C). Always test the milk temperature before feeding to avoid scalding your baby.
Important Information
- Only use the scoop included in the package.
- Do not make feeds weaker or stronger than indicated. Do not add extra water, scoops, or other ingredients.
- Always prepare fresh. Do not prepare bottles in advance. Discard any leftovers after each feed.
- Never heat bottles in the microwave - hot spots can cause burns.
- Once opened, use formula within 21 days. Never use beyond the expiration date printed on the box/tin (format: day/month/year).
- Avoid storing formula in hot or humid environments.
