Women, Children, Young People and Families

With the increasing prescription costs in specialist formula and diagnosis of infants with cow’s milk allergy, the Women, Children, Young People and Families (WYCPF) team at NHS Education for Scotland (NES) hosted a webinar focussing on the management of Cow's Milk Allergy.

• Review the evidence on diagnosis and management of infants presenting with cow’s milk allergy.
