Similac Alimentum is one of the leading hypoallergenic formulas on the market. However, unless your baby is sensitive to corn, or has extreme food allergies, you would never know that Similac Alimentum powder and Similac Alimentum Ready-to-Drink liquid formula were two completely different formulas. Similac Alimentum powder and ready-to-drink have the same properties and offer the same nutritional value. However, babies who are extremely sensitive to dairy, soy, and/corn will find that the powder is intolerable and the liquid is the only thing that works. Luckily for the users of Similac Alimentum, the price point for liquid and powder are the same, however, finding ways to save can be drastically different. Below is a breakdown of different ways you can save on powder and ready-to-drink liquid Alimentum. Saving on Similac Alimentum Powder Formula
