Description
Lactogen 1 is an infant milk formula manufactured by Nestlé, designed for babies from birth up to 6 months who are not breastfed or are partially breastfed. It contains essential nutrients like proteins, vitamins, minerals, and probiotics (such as L. reuteri) to support healthy growth and digestion during early development.
How to Use:
Lactogen 1 should be used exactly as instructed by a pediatrician or according to the preparation guide on the packaging. To prepare, sterilize all feeding utensils, then mix the recommended number of scoops of Lactogen 1 powder with lukewarm, previously boiled water. Stir or shake well until the powder dissolves completely. Feed immediately and discard any leftover formula after 1 hour. Do not prepare large batches in advance, and never add extra scoops of powder or dilute the formula more than recommended.
Possible Side Effects:
Lactogen 1 is generally safe for most infants when used properly. However, some babies may experience side effects, including:
-
Mild digestive issues like gas, bloating, or constipation during the transition from breast milk.
-
Allergic reactions, especially in infants with cow’s milk protein allergy or lactose intolerance, leading to symptoms like rash, vomiting, or diarrhea.
-
Feeding refusal or fussiness, which may occur if the formula doesn’t suit the baby.
If your baby shows signs of discomfort, allergic reaction, or feeding issues, consult a pediatrician immediately. Always follow medical advice for formula feeding.
