Side Effects:
While Lactogen 2 is generally safe when used as directed, some infants may experience mild side effects, including:
-
Digestive Issues: Such as gas, constipation, or diarrhea, especially during the initial stages of transition.
-
Allergic Reactions: In rare cases, infants may show signs of milk protein allergy, leading to symptoms like rash, vomiting, or abdominal discomfort.

Feeding Intolerance: Some babies may refuse to feed or appear unsettled after consumption.
If any of these symptoms persist or worsen, it’s important to consult a pediatrician. Always follow the preparation instructions carefully to ensure the safety and well-being of your baby.
