Hi,
Isomil is lactose-free formula milk, given in babies with lactose intolerance (with symptoms like gaseous distension, excessive crying in the evening). Blood in poop is due to infection only.
If you breastfeeding from last 7 months with no symptoms, then it's less likely that its lactose intolerance in your baby. You need to give normal milk to the baby.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
