Mother's milk is always best for baby. However if it is not possible formulas can be used
PRE-NAN can be used for feeding the rapidly growing infant of low birth weight until he achieves a weight of 5 kilograms.
You should strictly follow the proportion and quantity of PRE-NAN powder and water during preparation of feeds which changes as per weight of baby.
For further queries you may consult me at Healthcare Magic under section "Ask Expert " >>>"Ask Pediatrician".
