The best formula is the one that works for your baby. Different babies have different needs. What works for your friend's baby may not work for yours. Check with your pediatrician if you think your baby has special needs when it comes to formula... Once you've determined that, then you can easily determine the formula you should get. Check out the Formula Finder linked below.
You can use that tool to find a store brand formula based on your baby's needs. You should also consult your pediatrician if you're not sure!
Another thing to consider is using a Store Brand Formula. We used Parent's Choice with our twins because they did very well with it, and it saved us a bunch of money. We learned that store brand formulas are nutritionally equal to the major name brands, but just about half the cost. All infant formula manufacturers are required to meet or exceed the nutritional guidelines set by the FDA. If you compare labels side by side, you'll see how much alike they are! In fact, Parent's Choice has labels side by side on their website! Just check out the individual formulas on their site!
I hope all of this helps!
