Can Lactogen Be Given To A Child?

My son was born in India on 1 Apr 2010. I used to feed him Nestle Lacogen 1. Im in US now and searched a lot to get this product here. but didnt find it. I tried feeding him Similac, Enfamil, Kirkland and even Good start. he is not liking it. He is refusing it to have 1 oz also. Is it advisable to start up with Lactogen? As I have heard that its not recommended product.

Hi,

You may give lactogen as many as you want, but try to withdraw it slowly by decreasing the dose you give daily and replace it by any other one.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
