ready-to-feed

Pour and serve

Ready-to-feed describes liquid infant formula that requires no mixing or preparation—just open and pour into a bottle.

It contrasts with powdered or concentrated formulas that must be diluted with water: The hospital sent us home with ready-to-feed bottles.

The term appears on packaging and in pediatric guidance.
