My peditrician suggested NUSOBEE Soya when she was 3 months old, can we use the same fornula after she completes 1 year

Hi...Nusobee Soya is a good alternative for lactose intolerance. But it contains Soy protein which has 15% cross reactivity with Lactose. So I suggest you try a lactose free formula like Zerolac.
You can use the same formula even if she is 1 year old. But apart from, this you need to give her all rice based feeds and other pulses and cereals by 1 year of age.
