Packaged water for formula feed

2025-09-05 16:06:38
Our daughter is 6.5 months old and we have been using Bailey packaged water from birth for formula preparation. For a few months we didn't boil the water and used for formula preparation. Did this cause any harm to the baby? Can we continue using packaged water like bisleri or Bailey for formula preparation? Thanks

You must boil water 15-20 minutes or boil it in a pressure cooker for 2 cities - after completing the doses of hepatitis A and typhoid you can you package bottle water or home RO water as these do not kill hepatitis A and typhoid .
