There are approximately 1.8 teaspoons in this infant formula. Infant formula is a substitute that is almost exactly like breast milk and a very good replacement consisting of a number of ingredients that will help your baby grow. These include soy proteins, whey, lactose as well as a number of vitamins found in milk. This is a special formula because it will aid and assist the baby to grow healthy but maintain all the correct nutrients it needs to be healthy.

There could be a number of reasons why a baby might need infant formula instead of maintaining its healthy balance of consuming breast milk. This is because the mother might be ill so therefore does not have enough antibodies in her system to protect herself and also the baby when suckling on her breast for milk.

This is crucial to maintain a healthy baby, so in this case there needs to be replacement vitamins and supplements involved in the baby's formula. The baby might have a defect whilst the mother gave birth and therefore is unable to breastfeed and obtain milk from the mother. This is also another important factor when mothers decide to use infant formula instead of regular breast milk.

The mother may also not be able to produce enough milk. This is down to lactation issues as the mother simply cannot produce enough lactose in the body to satisfy the new-born baby's hunger. Allergies that the mother may have may also have a threat of being passed on to the baby. Therefore it is essential to change to a supplemented or different type of infant formula in order to satisfy the baby.

If you ask at a time when they are not terribly busy, I'm sure your local pharmacist will be happy to help you figure it out. It depends on the density of the formula, but seems likely to be between 1 and 2 teaspoons. Please be sure to ask them to make sure you're doing it correctly. Misused formula is a common cause of problems with a baby's health.
